People over 65 are 2.5 times more likely to die in a fire than the general population. That’s why, when we perform an assessment at a client’s home, we are looking not just at them, but at their environment.  We want to make sure the home is safe for our clients and also for our caregivers.

We put together the following tips to help reduce the risk from fire and carbon monoxide.  If you have a senior in your life, please check on them and their home to make sure they are taking these very reasonable precautions.  Call Assisting Hands today if you would like to discuss how home care can help protect your loved ones!
