Falls are scary at any age, but a fall can be even worse for older adults. According to the National Council on Aging, the number one cause of fatal injury is falling, specifically falling from an elevated surface like stairs. As you and your loved ones age, you should consider a home stair lift. Here are three reasons why it would be a great investment.

1. More Home Accessibility

The great thing about a home stair lift is that you can have it installed both indoors and outdoors. They can be set on a straight path or a curved one, depending on the configuration of your home. That way, you won't feel like any part of your place has become off-limits. Every area will be reachable again.

2. Increased Safety

As you age, you may feel more hesitant about going up or down the stairs, since your balance may not be what it used to be. Unstable balance puts you at risk of falling. That's not the case with a stair lift. It will safely transport you up and down the stairs and let you off at a place with stable ground.

3. More Independence

In the future, you may have to depend on other people to guide you up and down the stairs. You won't feel that way with a stair lift. Instead, you will be able to do whatever you want. Is there a ball game you want to watch in the living room? You can take the lift down from the second floor. Especially for elders who live alone, it gives them the freedom to do just that.

It's also relatively simple for the installers to set up. They will inspect your place to make sure there are no structural issues that could cause problems. Then, they will install the lift for you and demonstrate what to do to go up and down. Before you know it, you'll be a pro at going wherever you want. For any elder who feels stifled by a multistory home, they'll feel independent while remaining safe.
