 STAY SAFE IN YOUR HOME
One of the most rewarding parts of having a Comfort Keepers business is seeing people having a better quality of life. Part of better quality means staying safe in the home. Our Comfort Keeper caregivers help keep clients safe while they are in the home and we even offer SafetyChoiceTM technology products when clients are alone without a Comfort Keeper.
We also do free home assessments to help prevent injuries that could result in lengthy hospital stays and a diminished quality of life. Seniors especially are vulnerable to accidents, whether they are tripping over things, taking the wrong medications or leaving things in the kitchen.
Here are some things to look at to ensure your home is safe:
OUTDOORS
Paint porches with grit to prevent slips
Railings need regular inspections for sturdiness on porches and steps
LIVING ROOMS
· Remove extension cords, throw rugs and other tripping hazards.
· Use light sensitive night lights in unlit stairwells and hallways.
· Place light switches at doors to prevent walking in the dark.
· Install smoke alarms in every room and test the batteries regularly.
KITCHENS
· Use heating elements that shut off such as electric burners on the stove.
· Keep fire extinguishers handy.
· Only use sturdy step stools with handles and use poles for reaching.
· Keep vents clean of grease.
BATHROOMS
· Modify baths with tub cutaways.
· Install grab bars.
· Install higher toilets to assist in standing and sitting.
· Apply non-slip strips to bathtubs.
· Use shower seats with back and portable shower heads.
· Paint with contrasting colors.
CRIME PREVENTION
· Keep doors and windows locked. Use peep holes. Never open your door automatically.
· Notify neighbors and the police when going away on a trip.
· Never leave notes on your front door.
· Be suspicious of offers from unknown contractors to do home repairs. Only work with reputable businesses.
Underwriters Laboratories reports that up to one million people over age 65 were treated in hospital emergency rooms for injuries associated with using every day, household items.
Did you know 33% of all hospitalizations of people age 65 and older are taking medications improperly? Don’t hesitate or feel embarrassed to ask for help in reading labels or being reminded on the correct dosages.
A safety checklist is helpful to follow, but having someone to visit with on a daily basis is even better. If the family is too far away or working, hiring a caregiver that focuses on interactive care, can help avoid accidents as well as maintain cognitive skills. Further, having someone to share memories and daily tasks, can make the day brighter and give the family a little respite.
