Caring for Others Starts with Caring for Yourself 🌿

In this post, you’ll find:
✔️ Simple self-care habits to prevent burnout

Why Fall Prevention Matters for Seniors 🍂

Did you know that 1 in 4 seniors over 65 experiences a fall each year (CDC)? Falls are the #1 cause of injury in older adults—but most are preventable.

At Loving Hands Homecare Agency in Eaton Rapids, we believe safe aging at home is more than daily care. It’s about creating a home where seniors feel steady, secure, and independent.

✅ Common fall risks:
• Loose rugs & cluttered walkways
• Poor lighting in hallways & bathrooms
• Medication side effects
• Balance or mobility changes

✨ How we help:
Our compassionate caregivers provide in-home safety assessments, mobility support, and daily assistance to reduce risks—so seniors can live with confidence.

💡 Remember: Fall prevention isn’t about limiting independence—it’s about protecting it.
