Fall Prevention Tips: Creating Safer Spaces for Independent Living

Did you know that one in four older adults falls each year? Falls are a leading cause of serious injury among seniors, but most are preventable with simple environmental changes and proactive planning. This August, Libertana is raising awareness around fall prevention and sharing practical ways to make homes safer.

Our care coordinators and in-home providers are trained to assess home environments for hazards and suggest modifications—such as grab bars, proper lighting, and clear walkways—that support safer mobility. We also recommend gentle strength and balance exercises, medication reviews, and vision checks as additional ways to reduce fall risk.

Promoting safety is at the core of our services. Fall prevention empowers seniors to maintain independence and confidence in their daily lives. Libertana remains a partner in helping clients age in place, safely and comfortably.
