Home Safety & Fall Prevention Pack

Make home a safer place to age.

Most falls at home happen during everyday activities: getting out of bed, going to the bathroom at night, or carrying something down the stairs. Many of them can be prevented with small changes. This pack walks you through the same kind of home safety check our care teams do on a first visit.

What's inside (10 editable pages, Microsoft Word)

• Room-by-room home safety check: entrances, living areas, bathroom, kitchen, bedroom and stairs
• Fall risk checklist to bring to the doctor
• Simple everyday habits that prevent falls
• Dementia and wandering safety plan
• Fire and emergency readiness checklist
• Emergency information sheet for the fridge, where paramedics look first
• Action plan: who will fix what, and by when

Who it's for: families helping a parent or spouse stay safely at home, and caregivers setting up a new client's home.
