The Canadian government has made available on the website of the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC), a safety guide for seniors that can be found at the following address: http://www.phac-aspc.gc.ca/seniors-aines/publications/public/injury-blessure/safelive-securite/index-eng.php
This guide offers advice on how to prevent injuries by modifying your environment (your bathroom, for example) so that it is as safe as you can make it. In the guide, checklists allow you to detect and fix safety issues that you may have. The benefits of these fixes and improvements are illustrated by real-life stories.
