Lesson Overview

5.2 – Preventing Household Accidents: Many household accidents happen during everyday activities, but simple steps can greatly reduce the risks. Slips and falls can be prevented by wiping spills quickly and using non-slip mats in bathrooms and kitchens. Keeping items you use often within easy reach avoids climbing on unstable furniture. Double-checking that appliances are off before leaving a room prevents fires and damage. Using step stools safely with someone nearby adds support for reaching higher areas. Watching for frayed cords, loose stairs, or sharp edges helps you fix hazards before injuries occur. Being alert when handling tools or cleaning products keeps your focus on safety first. Taking your time instead of rushing prevents mistakes caused by distraction. Household accidents are not just bad luck—they often come from small hazards that can be stopped with awareness. When you practice safe habits daily, your home becomes a more secure and comfortable place to live.
