Everybody checks the bathroom for fall hazards. Almost nobody checks the living room — which is where older adults spend most of their waking hours and stand up out of a chair a dozen times a day. In this episode, retired Occupational Therapist, Certified Aging in Place Specialist, and Dementia Care Specialist Esther Kane walks through the five things that actually catch a foot in a living room, three free ways to see a room you’ve stopped looking at, and a ten-minute fix-three-things routine anyone can do today. She also explains why the usual advice reverses when dementia is part of the picture, and why moving the furniture can be more dangerous than leaving it.
