Bathroom Fracture, Safety Tips For Elders

How does one go about preventing these Fractures in the Bathroom?

For starters, those above 60, must realize they are not getting younger and the body has a mind of its own, it refuses, at times to obey you,

Understand this, no point in trying to look young and act young.

Our time is past.

Unless we realize this, we might be in trouble for ourselves and a nuisance to others.

Do not get up from the Bed at one stroke. wake up slowly, switch on the light and sit in the bed for a few minutes, then get down from the cot.

Preferable to avoid searching for the slippers with the feet, chances are you might slip.

Walk to the Bathroom slowly, switch on the light.

2.Advisable to have the Bathroom floor semi rough surface .

Avoid glitzy smooth surface tiles.

3.The Bathroom switch is to be fixed outside with dual control inside.

4.Switch on and Off from the outside.

5.Do not drink more water than necessary before going to Bed.
