Living alone can feel freeing—but it also comes with real risks, especially as we get older.

In fact, falls are one of the leading causes of injury for adults over 65, and many of those accidents happen right at home. The good news is that a few inexpensive tools can dramatically reduce those risks. Even better, most of them cost less than a dinner out and take minutes to set up.
