1) Improve nighttime pathways
Add warm, low-glare night lights between bed, bathroom, and hallway turns. Better visibility often prevents the most common overnight stumbles.
2) Reduce "catch points"
Secure loose rugs, tidy cords, and clear narrow walkways. Removing small trip hazards can have a bigger effect than adding expensive equipment.
3) Add support where transitions happen
Install grab bars near shower entry and toilet, and prioritize stable hand support at steps or uneven thresholds.
