What Happens When There Is No Safe Place to Live?
What happens when a sudden change in health or mobility makes your home a place of danger? As an Occupational Therapist, I see this daily. Our mission is to prevent crisis situations by reimagining living spaces before they become barriers.
The Hidden Crisis in UK Homes
Every year, thousands of people in the UK are discharged from hospital to homes that are no longer safe for them. Falls are the leading cause of injury-related death in people over 65. The right home adaptations can prevent these crises.
When to Act
- After a fall or near-miss at home
- Following a hospital admission
- When a new diagnosis affects mobility
- When caring for someone at home becomes difficult
