Home Safety Checklist: Find and Fix Fall Hazards

What it does

Check each hazard that is true in your home. We turn your answers into a printable fix list using the fixes in CDC's Check for Safety checklist. Fixing even one hazard is a real start, and it is fine to ask someone to help.

Stairs and steps (indoors and outdoors)
Floors
Kitchen
Bedrooms
Bathrooms

Before you start

Go room to room with the list open, or print it and take a pen. Leave anything high, heavy or electrical to someone else; no fix is worth a climb. Nothing you tick is saved or sent.
