Below are some home safety tips from the Home Safety Council to make your home a true safe haven.

• Make sure stairs are well lit, with light switches at top and bottom.
• All railings should go from the top to the bottom of the staircase and be easy to grab, at 36 to 39 inches from floor.
• Doors should have easy-to-grip leveraction handles instead of round knobs.
• Furniture arrangements need wide paths for traffic, clear of cords and other trip hazards.
