Start the New Year Safer at Home: An OT’s January Guide for Aging in Place

January has a way of slowing things down — and for many older adults, that quiet can make certain challenges easier to notice. Getting out of bed feels harder. The bathroom doesn’t feel as safe. Daily tasks take more energy than they used to. That’s not failure — it’s information. In this video, Dr. Brandy Archie, occupational therapist and founder of AskSAMIE, shares a practical January reset for older adults and caregivers who want to stay safe, confident, and independent at home. This isn’t about doing more — it’s about making life easier through small, preventative changes. 🏡 In this video, you’ll learn: – Why January is one of the most important times to reflect on safety at home – Early signs your home setup may need support (before a fall happens) – Simple bathroom, bedroom, dressing, and mobility changes that protect independence – Why small changes done early prevent bigger problems later – How the right environment reduces stress, fatigue, and fall risk You don’t need a full renovation to make your home safer. And needing support does not mean losing independence — it means protecting it. 📘 Download the Free OT-Approved New Year Support Guides These guides help you: – Understand what tools may help – Create a simple, realistic plan for the year ahead 👉 Visit the link below based on your focus area and download the AskSAMIE New Year Support Guides and start your year with clarity instead of pressure. 🔹 Mobility & Movement Support Guide https://www.asksamie.com/pages/mobili... 🔹 Dementia & Memory Support Guide https://www.asksamie.com/pages/dement... 👍 If this video resonated with you, please like, subscribe, and share it with a loved one or caregiver who wants to age in place safely and confidently.
