Sponsored news – Many older adults desire to stay in their homes, as long as they maintain good health and independence. Some daily activities, including household chores can be more difficult as you age, due to factors such a slower gait and impaired balance.
There are some chores seniors might find challenging, such as:
* House cleaning. Cleaning is more difficult for seniors who move slower. Telescopic feather dusters are able to reach and stretch. A long-handled broom or dustpan set makes sweeping much easier. Long-handled grabbers make it easy to grab fallen objects.
* Grocery shopping. As we age, the simple task of shopping at the grocery store and returning with groceries to our homes becomes more difficult. Shopping bags that can be pushed on a scooter or wheelchair, shopping bags with ergonomic handles and shopping bags with wheels are all options for making this task easier.
