We find the hidden hazards before they lead to a fall.

Our experienced home safety specialists evaluate every room with one goal in mind: identifying the risks that could lead to a fall or make everyday life more difficult. You'll receive a personalized safety report with recommendations, prioritized by what is critical to do and what can wait.

  • Fall risks room by room
  • Bathroom safety
  • Lighting and dark paths
  • Stairs and entryways
  • Getting up from chairs, beds, and toilets

Bathroom Safety

The most dangerous room in the house shouldn't be the one they use the most.

For many older adults, simply sitting down or standing up from the toilet can become difficult—and dangerous. The bathroom combines hard surfaces, tight spaces, wet floors, and frequent transfers, making it one of the highest-risk areas for falls.

81% of bathroom injuries are caused by falls, and nearly 1 in 7 happen while using or getting on and off the toilet.

A safer, more comfortable way to use the toilet.

The UpRiser™ by Vital Fjord is a premium, battery-operated, height-adjustable toilet seat lift designed to gently lower and raise users. Combined with properly placed grab bars and other bathroom safety improvements, it can help make one of life's most frequent daily activities significantly safer.
