SUPERVISION
A home care safety assessment presents critical information about how to best care for your aging parents in their home environment, identifying hazards and later determine if home care is needed. Home assessments are an important component of home care. They determine the degree of safety and comfort of seniors in their homes and evaluate the need for equipment and assertive devices. Our goal is to help seniors remain healthy at home, and the best way to do that is to first ensure that seniors’ homes are safe.
One third of all seniors in the US experience a fall each year, and the majority of these falls occur in their own home. To help seniors remain safe as they age in place, it’s important to address potential risks and hazards.
