    What are some elderly-friendly home modifications for aging in place?

    Hi There! I have some elderly loved ones that are staying with me once in a while, so keeping them safe has always been a concern of mine. What modifications can we make, to ensure safety? Any tips?​

    Simple things like adding grab bars in the bathroom and handrails along staircases can provide extra support. You might also want to consider installing brighter lighting to improve visibility and reducing trip hazards by securing loose rugs or adding non-slip mats. Making sure doorways and hallways are wide enough for mobility aids like walkers or wheelchairs can also be helpful. 😉👍🙂👌
