How to Create a Safe and Cozy Home for Seniors: Start with These 3 Areas
Creating an age-friendly home doesn't require a complete renovation—just smart adjustments in key living spaces.
Living Room:
Replace low sofas with elderly care chairs to ease sitting and standing
Clear walking paths to avoid tripping
Use rounded-edge furniture to prevent injuries
Bedroom:
Choose a spine-supporting mattress to improve sleep quality
Add bedside grab bars for nighttime stability
Provide a shoe-changing bench to reduce bending strain
Bathroom:
Install anti-slip bars and mats to prevent falls
Use a shower chair to improve balance and comfort during bathing
A senior-friendly home is the foundation for aging with dignity and ease.
