Help Make Home Safer Before a Fall Happens

If you’re an older adult, or you care for someone you love and worry about falls at home, this manual was created for you.

Falls usually don’t happen because of just one thing. Often, it’s a combination of changes in strength, balance, medications, vision, the home environment, and how we move throughout the day.

I created this manual to help you better understand those risks, recognize things around the home that may need attention, and take practical steps to make everyday life safer.

Inside the manual, you’ll learn how to:

🔹 Identify common fall hazards throughout the home
🔹 Make bathrooms, bedrooms, stairs, and other everyday spaces safer
🔹 Use a cane or walker more safely
🔹 Understand how balance, strength, medications, blood pressure, and vision can affect fall risk
🔹 Know what to do if you fall and when it’s time to ask for help

Simple information. Practical recommendations. A safer home.
