Program Description

Event Details

To prevent injuries, reduce fall risks, and maximize independence at home, it’s important for seniors to incorporate home safety tips and follow a home safety checklist. Falls are the leading cause of fatal and nonfatal injuries in seniors 65 and older. With aging skin and decreased bone density, seniors often have difficulty recovering from falls physically.

Farima (Real Estate Broker Certified Senior Home Specialist) will share some steps, sometimes combined with safe home care services, which can help seniors age in place longer.
