Specialized In Home Care for the Elderly in Fishersville

Age in Place With These Home Upgrades

At Visiting Angels^® Staunton, we offer in home care across Fishersville and nearby communities. This service is dedicated to keeping local seniors safely living in their own homes, allowing them to age with comfort and dignity rather than being moved to assisted living. An extended home life comes with many benefits, and we are proud to deliver the professional support needed to make that possible. 

As part of the process for creating a safer home life, we recommend making some key adjustments to the residence. The goal is to limit fall risks before these accidents occur, and make their daily life easier in a number of ways. 

Bathing is one of the daily tasks that gives seniors the most trouble. Not only is it difficult to manage with reduced mobility, but it also presents a serious danger. Falls can happen when entering or exiting the tub or shower, or simply by walking on a wet floor. These accidents can have extreme consequences, so it's absolutely vital to be proactive. Here are some wonderful home modifications to cut down on fall risks:

• Switch to a hand-held shower head and walk-in shower
• Add grab bars in the shower or tub for support
• Increase lighting across the residence and use LED bulbs
• Create easier access to kitchen essentials by placing them waist high
• Use non-slip mats in each bathroom
