Is My Parent Safe at Home?
A Practical Home Safety Checklist for Families
This checklist is designed to help families recognize early safety risks at home.
It is not a medical diagnosis — it’s a practical tool based on what we at Ellis Senior Care commonly see when helping older adults age safely at home.
Check any items that apply
Be honest — this is for your family only
________________________________________
SECTION 1: FALL & MOBILITY RISK
☐ My parent has fallen in the last 6–12 months
☐ Uses furniture or walls for balance
☐ Has difficulty standing up from a chair or couch
☐ Walks slower than they used to
☐ Avoids stairs or certain rooms
☐ Wears loose slippers or socks without grip

Most serious injuries we see begin with a simple fall.

☐ Misses appointments or medications
☐ Leaves the stove or appliances on
☐ Gets confused with dates or time
☐ Becomes anxious, irritable, or withdrawn
☐ Has gotten lost — even briefly
________________________________________
SECTION 4: MEDICATION & HEALTH MANAGEMENT
☐ Takes multiple medications
☐ Misses doses or doubles up
☐ Uses outdated prescriptions
☐ Has difficulty reading labels
☐ Refuses help with medications
________________________________________
SECTION 5: SAFETY & SUPERVISION

If this checklist raised some concerns, you’re not alone.
Many families tell us they wish they had asked for guidance sooner — before a fall happened, hospitalization, or emergency forced decisions.
A free care consultation can help you understand your options, even if you’re not sure what you need yet.

Happy Veterans Day. Today isn't just about service, it's about sacrifice—the moments missed back home, the hardships endured, and the parts of themselves our veterans left behind in places many of us will never fully understand. Some came home changed forever, and some never came home at all. We see you, we honor you, and we will never forget the price paid for our liberty. Thank you to every veteran! 🇺🇸🎖️
