Fall prevention is one of the most important issues regarding the health of the senior generation. Some tips are:

– The senior’s home should be checked for loose carpets, the house should be cleaned and organized and seniors should look down once in a while to see if they’re walking on uneven surface.

– When it comes to poor vision, the elderly should see to it that the house or his room is well lighted and that he or she is wearing the correct prescription lens.

– If the senior uses a cane or a medical walker, he or she should see to it that his or her mobility device is of the correct height, supports his weight, and is easy and comfortable to use.

Fall prevention shouldn’t only be learned by seniors, it should be the concern of anyone who lives or is a senior caregiver. This ensures that our seniors can still enjoy and live a quality life in that advanced age they have. Visit to assisted living Morris County for more info!
