Top-Rated Safety Products For A Barrier-Free Home
Creating a barrier-free home starts with choosing the right safety equipment to support mobility, independence, and confidence. At Congdon’s Aids to Daily Living, some of the most popular home safety solutions for aging in place include grab bars, raised toilet seats, bed rails, and floor-to-ceiling transfer poles designed to reduce fall risks and make everyday activities safer and easier.
Grab Bars
Installed in bathrooms, hallways, and entryways, grab bars provide secure support for sitting, standing, and transferring. Modern designs are available in a variety of lengths and finishes to blend seamlessly into the home while improving safety.
Raised Toilet Seats
Raised toilet seats help reduce strain on the hips, knees, and back by minimizing the distance required to sit or stand. They are especially helpful following surgery, during rehabilitation, or for individuals with limited mobility.
Bed Rails
Bed rails offer additional stability when getting in and out of bed and can help prevent nighttime falls. Many models are designed for home use with discreet, comfortable designs that support independent living without making the bedroom feel clinical.
Floor-To-Ceiling Transfer Poles
Transfer poles create a secure support point anywhere in the home without permanent renovations. Commonly used beside beds, chairs, or in bathrooms, they assist with standing, pivoting, and transfers while helping individuals remain independent in their own homes.
With over 50 years of experience and a specialized team of 40+ professionals, Congdon’s Aids to Daily Living helps Edmonton families find practical home safety solutions that support comfort, dignity, and long-term independence.
Essential Safety Modifications For Every Room
Creating a safer, barrier-free home often starts with making practical modifications in the areas where falls and mobility challenges are most common. At Congdon’s Aids to Daily Living, we help individuals and families choose solutions that support aging in place, independence, and everyday confidence.
The Bathroom
Bathrooms are one of the highest-risk areas in any home due to slippery surfaces and confined spaces around showers and toilets. Safety modifications such as grab bars, raised toilet seats, transfer benches, and non-slip bath mats can significantly reduce fall risks. For individuals with limited mobility, bath lifts provide a safer and more comfortable way to enter and exit the tub while maintaining independence.
The Bedroom
The bedroom should be designed with fall prevention and ease of movement in mind. Bed rails can provide additional support when repositioning or getting in and out of bed, especially during nighttime hours. Height-adjustable beds are another valuable solution, allowing users and caregivers to customize positioning for comfort, transfers, and safer mobility.
The Entryway
Entryways can become challenging when stairs, uneven surfaces, or poor visibility are involved. Threshold ramps help create smoother transitions for walkers, wheelchairs, and scooters, while high-visibility lighting improves safety during evenings and winter conditions. Even small entryway modifications can make a major difference in maintaining safe access to the home year-round.
Home Accessibility Rentals For Temporary Recovery
When a loved one is recovering from surgery, returning home from the hospital, or visiting temporarily, creating a safe and accessible home environment becomes essential. Congdon’s Aids to Daily Living offers home accessibility rentals designed to provide short-term support without the expense of purchasing equipment outright.
For temporary recovery situations, renting equipment can be a practical and cost-effective solution. High-ticket items such as hospital beds, patient lifts, wheelchairs, and mobility aids are available on flexible monthly rental options to help families create a safer home while managing costs.
Hospital bed rentals can improve comfort, positioning, and caregiver support during recovery, while patient lifts assist with safe transfers and reduce strain for both users and caregivers. Rental equipment is especially beneficial for post-surgical recovery, rehabilitation periods, palliative care, or preparing the home for visiting relatives with mobility challenges.
