What is a senior home safety evaluation?
Why Home Safety Awareness Matters
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), falls are a leading cause of injury among adults aged 65 and older. Increased awareness of potential hazards, along with proactive planning, can help families better understand risks and make informed decisions about home safety.
Falls are the leading cause of fatal injury and the most common cause of nonfatal trauma-related hospital admissions among older adults.
