Does your home support you as you age? Don’t wait till you get into an urgent situation to start thinking about home safety, the adaptability of your surroundings. Does your home support you? Is it hard to climb stairs, or have you slipped and fallen on a throw rug?

To live in safer surroundings, fall prevention specialist Dr. Shawn Weiss joins Suzanne Newman on the Answers for Elders Radio Show to talk about environmental wellness, one of the eight foundational principles of senior wellness featured this summer in the Vitality Revolution podcast series.

The conversation touches on various aspects of home safety now and in the future, to consider what could happen. The better prepared you are now, the safer you’ll be and more productive you can be in your home.
