This is an excellent resource for keeping our parents safe while living in their own homes.  Most of our parents value living independently as long as they can, and there are numerous ways we can help respect their wishes.  The author gave some initial observations we can make regarding how safe our parents feel in their homes, as well as assessing if they need additional help.  There were numerous considerations I had not thought of, and would have overlooked.  I found the tip on painting rooms in contrasting colors very helpful, as well as medication management tips.  The camera system (nanny-cam) recommendation was an excellent idea that I will be looking into.  This is an excellent resource guide to help our aging parents live safer lives in the homes they love.
