5 Ways to Prevent Falls at Home — and How Provide Carecall247 Can Help
Falls are one of the leading causes of injury among older adults, but with a few small changes, many can be prevented. At Provide Carecall247, we help individuals live independently and safely with 24/7 reassurance and fall detection built in.
Here are five simple ways to reduce the risk of falls at home:
- Clear walking spaces. Keep floors free of clutter, loose rugs, and cords to avoid tripping.
- Improve lighting. Use night lights in hallways and brighter bulbs in living spaces.
- Install grab rails and non-slip mats. Especially in bathrooms, where many falls occur.
- Keep essentials within reach. Avoid climbing or over-reaching for items.
- Use a fall detector. Our wearable devices automatically alert our team when a fall occurs, even if you can’t reach the button.
