Most falls at home start with three preventable hazards: a dark path at night, loose rugs, and bending or reaching for things you can't quite get to. The Fall Prevention Starter Kit tackles all three in one box with four clinician-chosen essentials that make the biggest difference first, no remodel required. What's inside ($68.92 retail value): Motion Sensor Night Lights (battery operated): automatically light the path from bed to bathroom, no wiring needed. Ideal for hallways, stairs, and entryways. Foldable Reacher / Grabber Tool: pick things up off the floor and reach high shelves from a safe, stable position instead of bending or climbing. Fluorescent Stair Tread (2" x 16' roll): anti-slip tape that adds grip and visual contrast to steps and thresholds, so edges are easy to see even in low light. Anti Slip Rug Grips: pin down the corners of throw rugs, one of the most common trip hazards in any home. Every item was picked by an occupational therapist. These are the same essentials we recommend first on real home visits. Not sure this is the right starting point for your family?
