Frequently Asked Questions about Fall prevention check in Newton Abbot
What do you check?
Everything that could cause a fall - loose rugs, trailing cables, poor lighting, slippery surfaces, lack of grab rails, furniture placement. We go room by room.
Can you fix things on the same visit?
Small fixes like moving rugs or tidying cables can often be done straight away. Bigger jobs like fitting grab rails can be scheduled for another visit.
Is this an official assessment?
It's a practical home check, not a clinical assessment. We identify hazards and recommend fixes based on experience. For medical assessments, contact your GP for an OT referral.
Who benefits from this?
Anyone concerned about fall risks - whether you've had a fall already, feel unsteady, or want to prevent problems before they start.
