👟 Step Into Safety: The Right Footwear for Fall Prevention!

Did you know that improper footwear is a major contributor to falls among seniors? Slippers, worn-out soles, and unsupportive shoes can increase the risk of slipping, tripping, and losing balance.

✅ Best Footwear for Seniors:
✔ Non-slip soles for better traction
✔ Secure fit with Velcro or laces
✔ Cushioned, comfortable support
✔ Low, stable heels to maintain balance

👩‍⚕️ How We Help:
Our Occupational Therapists assess walking patterns and recommend safe footwear, while Physiotherapists provide exercises to improve strength and stability.

💡 A simple shoe change can make a big difference in fall prevention! Read more in our latest blog: https://optimumhealthcare.com.au/the-right-footwear-for-seniors-a-simple-step-to-fall-prevention/

🏠 Is your home fall-proof? Small changes can make a BIG difference in keeping seniors safe!

🏠 Home Safety Tips for Seniors:

✔️ Remove tripping hazards – Keep floors clear of clutter, secure rugs with anti-slip pads, and tidy loose cords.
✔️ Improve lighting – Install brighter bulbs in hallways, staircases, and bathrooms. Nightlights help seniors navigate in the dark.
✔️ Use sturdy furniture – Chairs and beds should be at the right height to easily sit and stand up from.
✔️ Install grab bars and handrails – Place them in bathrooms, near toilets, and along staircases for added support.
✔️ Wear proper footwear – Avoid loose slippers or socks; opt for non-slip shoes with good grip.
✔️ Have emergency plans – Keep a phone nearby and consider wearing a medical alert device.

✅ Save this checklist and share it with a loved one. Need extra support? Our Occupational Therapists can assess your home for safety!
