Create Wide Pathways

Move small tables, baskets, and cords out of the main walking path. Leave room for a cane or walker if one is used.

Practical checks

  • Secure cords
  • Widen paths
  • Move clutter
  • Light favorite sitting areas

Review Seating

Low, soft chairs can be hard to stand from. A stable chair with arms may make sitting and standing feel easier.

Keep Essentials Close

Phone, remote, glasses, water, and lighting controls should be reachable from the favorite seat.

Simple summary

  • Clear cords
  • Use stable chairs
  • Improve lighting
  • Keep essentials nearby
