[quote=Anonymous]Occupational therapists can do an assessment. Ask your parents' health-care provider for a recommendation , check with VNA, or check with the local senior center. My (then 80s) mother had shoulder surgery and when she was sent home, an OC walked through the house and checked everything. As other posters' have said, it's about stair rails, no rugs, grab bars in the bath/shower, raised toilet seats, railings around toilets, bed railings, seat lifts, electric cords out of the way, etc.[/quote]
