Fall-Proofing the House

Maeve Sutton

Most falls happen at home, in ordinary rooms, on ordinary days, which is exactly why they catch families off guard. This is a clear walk-through of where risk actually hides: the bathroom transitions, the loose rug edge, the stairway with one bad bulb, the kitchen step stool nobody should still be using. Practical fixes for each room, in the order that matters most, so the people you love can move through their own house with confidence, not caution.
