Falls are one of the leading causes of injury among older adults, but many can be prevented with a few simple changes at home and in daily routines.
Here are a few ways to reduce fall risk:
• Keep walkways clear of clutter, cords, and loose rugs
• Install grab bars in bathrooms and handrails on stairs
• Make sure lighting is bright and accessible in all areas of the home
• Encourage supportive, non-slip footwear
• Stay active with exercises that improve strength and balance
At Comfort Keepers, we help families in North Colorado Springs create safer home environments while supporting independence and daily routines.
