Hello! How can I help you today?
assistant
I'm worried about my grandmother falling at home. What are some common fall hazards?
user
Common fall hazards include slippery floors, uneven surfaces, and tripping over clutter or cords. Installing handrails and improving lighting can also help.
assistant
That's helpful. What about in the bathroom? I've heard that's a big area for falls.
user
Yes, bathrooms can be slippery. Consider installing grab bars near the shower and toilet, and use non-slip mats or stickers on the floor.
assistant
Great, I'll look into that. Do you have any other general tips for preventing falls at home?
user
Yes, encourage your grandmother to wear shoes with good traction, remove tripping hazards, and consider having a medical alert system in case of a fall.
