Safety and independence

Staying safe while staying independent

As loved ones age, frailty, memory loss or chronic conditions can make everyday tasks like cooking, running errands or bathing harder. The goal is to keep them safe and well while preserving their independence.

Falls are common. About one in four adults 65 and older reports a fall each year, and falls are the leading cause of injury for that age group, according to the CDC. The encouraging news is that many falls can be prevented.

  • Unsteadiness, or holding furniture to get around
  • A recent fall or near miss
  • Hesitation on stairs
  • Clutter or poor lighting at home
  • Difficulty getting up from a chair or bed
  • Less activity out of fear of falling
