Frequently Asked Questions
22. What can I do to prevent falls at
home?
One simple way to prevent falls at home is to remove objects from
stairs, hallways, and other places where you walk. Tripping on
clutter, shoes, small furniture, pet bowls, electrical or phone
cords, or other things can cause a fall. Be sure to arrange
furniture so you have plenty of room to walk freely, too.
