Have you or a loved one needed assistance from the fire department after a fall?
Falls are not a normal part of aging.
A fall can be a warning sign that changes are needed to improve safety at home. Steps to Stay is a mobile occupational therapy provider specializing in comprehensive home safety evaluations. We identify fall hazards, assess how your home supports daily activities, and provide personalized recommendations to improve safety, independence, and confidence with everyday tasks and transfers—helping you remain safely in your home.
Why are occupational therapists perfect for home safety evaluations?
Occupational therapists are uniquely qualified to perform home safety evaluations because they assess the relationship between a person's abilities and their home environment. Rather than simply identifying hazards, OTs evaluate how those hazards impact daily activities and recommend individualized solutions that promote safety, independence, and aging in place.
Occupational therapists:
-Assess strength, balance, mobility, vision, cognition, and endurance.
-Evaluate how individuals safely perform activities of daily living (ADLs) within their home.
-Identify fall risks and recommend evidence-based prevention strategies.
-Recommend adaptive equipment and home modifications tailored to the individual's needs.
-Educate clients and caregivers on safe mobility and daily task performance.
-Support aging in place by maximizing independence and reducing the risk of injury.
