How can an independent living senior stay safe?

Security and independent living

If you are an independent living senior, you still need to take precautions. When we go for an outing, no matter how long, be sure to turn on a light *inside and out*; we never know when our return may be delayed. Remember to always have our door key ready before approaching the door.

Thank you for this important reminder. I am constantly asking my mother-in-law, did you turn on a light when you left? Because we never know how long we will be at the doctor or a store.
