Home Safety Quick Check for Older Adults — The Caregiving Concierge™

Important: This is an educational and organizational Quick Check, not a clinical fall-risk assessment or professional home evaluation. It does not determine whether a home is “safe,” prescribe medical care, or determine building-code, structural, or ADA compliance.

If something has changed medically: new or repeated falls, dizziness, weakness, changes in walking, transfers, vision, memory, or other health concerns may deserve discussion with an appropriate healthcare professional. In an emergency, call 911.

About this Quick Check

Caregiver Compass™ Home Safety Quick Check is an educational and organizational tool. It is not a medical evaluation, clinical fall-risk assessment, occupational or physical therapy assessment, engineering or construction evaluation, accessibility certification, building-code review, or determination that a home is safe.

The question areas reflect common home-safety topics found in older-adult home-safety guidance, including walking paths, floors, stairs, bathrooms, bedrooms, kitchens, lighting, entrances, emergency readiness, and changing needs.
