Here are some simple steps to reduce the risk of falls:

  • Remove loose rugs or secure them to the floor.
  • Use only non-skid rugs.
  • Ensure that the pathways in the home have proper lighting.
  • Place nightlights in the bedrooms and hallways.
  • Remove all clutter from the floor.
  • Tie up phone and electrical cords so that they stay out the way.
  • Inspect and repair unstable furniture.
  • Have a proper bed height so that it is easy to step into and out of the bed. If the bed is high, use a step stool.
