Elderly Home Care Safety Checklist
The risk of falling is not the only hazard
faced by the elderly. There are many risks
and precautions worth knowing about
to keep senior citizens safe, especially
if they are living independently. They
range from ensuring adequate lighting
over stoves to having emergency
numbers next to every phone. Others
include wearing proper shoes, padding
sharp corners of low-rise furniture,
keeping space heaters at a safe distance
from fl ammable materials, and more.
