Fall Prevention & Home Safety Checks
Falls are the leading cause of injury-related death among adults 65 and older, and that risk only grows with age. During every initial visit in Dallas, TX, our team completes a full home safety check, identifying loose rugs, poor lighting, cluttered walkways, and other fall hazards. We work with the client and their family, wherever they live in the surrounding area, to correct these risks before they become emergencies.
Infection Control Standards
Our caregivers follow strict health and safety protocols to prevent the spread of illness in every Dallas, TX home we serve, including:
- Consistent hand hygiene before and after every visit
- Use of personal protective equipment such as masks and gloves when appropriate
- Respiratory hygiene and cough etiquette
- Regular cleaning and disinfecting of frequently touched surfaces
Because we care for a population that is especially vulnerable to illness, our staff stays current with guidance from the CDC as well as state and local health departments across the Dallas area and surrounding communities.
Emergency Response Planning
Emergencies can happen at any time, which is why every in-home interview includes a review of entrances, exits, and emergency contacts. If a client in Dallas, TX experiences a fall or medical emergency, our caregivers are trained to respond immediately and contact 911 without hesitation. Home remains one of the safest places for a senior to recover and thrive, and our health and safety protocols are designed to keep it that way for families throughout Dallas and the surrounding area.
