A home safety checklist for seniors is a great way to assess an entire living space and determine where potential hazards could arise. Falls and injuries can occur in any room in the home. They are most prevalent in places like bathrooms and staircases, but hazards can be present in each and every room. It is important to make a list of all potential safety concerns and take preventative measures to address each and every one.

If you wait until an emergency situation to act, it will already be too late. It is important to prepare in advance and not only take preventative measures, but also have a plan in place if you need to exit your house quickly or get help.

Home safety is something all seniors should take very seriously. As we age, we become a little less physically capable as we once were and can become more vulnerable to injuries within our home. Accidents can occur anywhere within the confines of our home, so please complete this Senior Home Safety Checklist.
