Getting old has it's ups and downs. Our lives come to a point where we have fulfilled most everything and we simply like to help as much as we can but also enjoy our free time spending it with our grand kids or with our favorite hobbies. But just as much as we want to have fun, we must be responsible for our own selves, and simply realize and admit that we are not as strong as when we were forty and we need to prep our homes as well as our wardrobe to minimize risk for our bodies especially as an arthritis sufferer getting treatment at a center, one of Osteo Relief Institute locations. Activities of daily living will be reviewed in detail to help make life as manageable as possible.
The first thing is to make sure that handles are installed in all doors, or by the doors, especially if there are stairs nearby. That way if tend to slip or fall down we will always have something to hold on to. And going on the same idea is to also install handrails next to the bathroom toilet, bathtub, shower, wherever there are areas in your home that you think you may be vulnerable to a probable slip, or a fall. The last thing that we want to avoid is a possible fall, to minimize risk or fracture to our already weak joints. For wardrobe do things as simple as using shoes that have Velcro instead of laces, buy pants that don't have too many buttons. Do whatever you can to keep yourself as safe as possible because no one will take better care of you than you.
