    Elderly Safety Products For Seniors

    Revision as of 02:55, 14 February 2024 by 142.147.242.229 (talk)

    Elderly safety products are designed to help seniors live independently and safely at home. Some of these products include mobility devices, such as canes and walkers, shower stools, raised toilet seats and more. Others are fire and carbon monoxide detectors, home security systems, medical alarms and personal emergency response buttons.

    Personal emergency assistance - If your elderly parent is living alone, installing a personal emergency response button will give you peace of mind that help will be there in the event of an emergency. The button is small and easy to use – all it takes is the push of a button to send out help.

Make sure the stairs are clear of obstacles and that there aren’t any items that may be dangerous to climb or drop.

    Bathroom safety - Reduce the risk of falls by putting down non-slip mats in the shower and tub, and installing grab bars or a shower chair. Also consider a toilet safety frame, which makes it easier for a senior to sit and stand up from the toilet.





    Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors - Install smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in all rooms of the house. Check them for broken batteries and change them when necessary.

    Kitchen safety - Make sure all appliances, sinks and cabinets are accessible for senior loved ones to use. Move down any items that are too high for them to reach and install a touchless faucet so they won’t have to struggle with it.
