Hey community! I'm helping set up a safe space for my elderly family members and would love some advice on budget-friendly modifications. What changes have you made to ensure a secure environment for seniors?

One cost-effective option is installing grab bars in the bathroom and along hallways to prevent slips and falls... Also, consider adding non-slip mats in the shower and removing any tripping hazards like loose rugs...

Hey everyone! 🏠Installing grab bars in key areas like the bathroom and near stairs can be a game-changer for preventing slips and falls. 🔒 Plus, they're relatively cheap and easy to install yourself. Another idea is to add non-slip mats or rugs in high-traffic areas to reduce the risk of accidents. 🚿 And don't forget about good lighting! 💡 Adding motion-sensor lights or bright LED bulbs can make a big difference in visibility, especially at night. These changes might seem small, but they can make a big impact on keeping your loved ones safe at home. 🛠️
