Synopsis

Over 2 million seniors will fall and injure themselves this year, and 20,000 or more will die from those injuries! However, most seniors and their adult children are neither aware of the magnitude of the problem, nor the vast range of affordable technologies available to help make homes safe. This book is "required reading" for every person over 55 who wants to stay out of nursing homes and live independently for as long as possible.
