A Safer Home for Senior Citizens |
- Install bright lights in dark corners and along stairs.
- Use non-slip flooring or wall-to-wall carpeting.

- Put a coloured stripe on the edge of hard-to-see steps.
- Use a shower instead of a bathtub.
- Don't smoke especially in bed.
- Make prearrangement with your neighbours in case of emergencies.
