Home safety is essential for Erie seniors. Through your local Erie County Department of Senior Services, you can have someone do a safety walk-through to help you rearrange potential safety hazards. By having someone do this, you as an Erie senior, have a more safe home. As a result of a safer home, you have a safe and more fulfilled life as an Erie senior. Once you have received your walk through inspection, you can ask for a specialized list of home modifications to help make your home safer.
