Falling down is a concern no matter the age
The possibility of a fall is especially high for the elderly. Injuries sustained from trips and falls might be minor, such as scrapes and bruises, or severe, such shattered bones or a concussion. It can take a long time for these wounds to fully recover. Seniors would benefit most from care that keeps them from tripping and falling.
How we help
It's possible that we won't be aware of the difficulties that may arise in our daily lives due to mobility concerns until we start experiencing them. As we age, it can become more difficult to move around our houses, particularly up and down stairs, around doorways, and in and out of confined spaces like restrooms and closets. A professional caregiver can assess the situation at your loved one's house in Traverse City and Petoskey and make recommendations for improvement.
Our suggestions
The safety, health, and happiness of your loved one is always our top priority when providing home care elderly need. For this reason, we may make recommendations such as:
- Brightening up passageways and doors.

- Throw rugs and other rugs with frayed ends should be put away.
- Lights in the bathroom and bedroom for use at night.
- Proper usage of assistive mobility devices.
