Home, Environmental Should-Haves
Simple, reliable environmental modifications that prevent stumbles, build confidence, and make everyday routines safer for loved ones at home.
MOST CRITICAL in my opinion. Accidents happen - slip and falls in the shower. Doesn't matter the age - I knew someone who fell in the shower shaving their legs! When you click on the link you'll see the one I bought over a year ago - looks rough (but it actually tickles your feet). Dries quickly - couldn't be happier with it. Again, full selection on Amazon but bathmats are common in most stores you choose because they are important. ...
An Adjustable transfer guide with pockets. My mother-in-law used one similar - she needed something to grab onto when she got out of bed and could keep her "important" items in the pouches. Again - others can be purchased at home health locations. If you decide to look at Amazon - click on the link and it takes you straight to one that looks good.
I have used grabbers and know many folks who have one. It's one of those simple tools that actually makes daily life easier when reach is limited
It’s useful if you: Use a wheelchair and need extra reach Can’t comfortably get to higher cabinets Drop keys, a remote, or something else on the floor. Need to retrieve an item that slid under a table. *Have to reach at an angle and don’t want to risk your balance. NOT just convenience - it fosters NOT waiting for someone.
Click the link. You'll go straight to Amazon where grabber is. Select & buy if good.
Love These - Used These - Family & Friends have them. Most are Seniors; however my younger family members use them for their hikes thru the hill country. **These are AI generated images, as not allowed to pull Amazon Pics. Click and you go to Amazon search.
Maintains Balance, Stay Upright, Look ahead not down on the ground. Two Poles Better Balance. The click will send you to an assortment of available poles - everyone's tastes are different. Have Fun - Stay Active.
14 day or AM and PM Pill Organizers - They are sold all over -different retailers. Check prices, types. If Amazon style is for you - choose what you like.
Caregivers organizing meds for others. Managing several prescription at once. Travelers who need a compact daily plan for meds.,
More to come as I have time to put them up. Thank you
Yup - Toilet Safety - Especially for those who are fighting balance issues. Actually I used one almost exactly like this when I had surgery - could hardly walk let alone going to the restroom. We kept it and when our older in-laws came to visit who had health issues, we put it up again. They were thankful. If you decide to look at Amazon - click the link straight to Amazon.
