Residential Applications
Homes, apartments and condominiums can be more dangerous for slips and falls as any work place, factory, or commercial building.
19,000 deaths per year result from slips and falls (Center for Disease Control)
Injuries from falls are the most common cause of visits to the emergency room for young children and adults age 65 and older. (National Safety Council)
Variety of Risk Areas:
Decks – Painted wood and especially pressurized wood used on decks and steps can be very slippery when wet and/or worn.
Wood and Cement Ramps – Often the homeowner will build a wood ramp to save money over an aluminum ramp. They are surprised to discover that a caregiver cannot walk up a wood ramp when wet or icy.
Wood steps to basement – Wood steps, often unpainted and worn, can have poor lighting associated with their use.
Exterior wood and cement steps – Steps can be treacherous when wet or icy
Private docks and piers – Wet pressurized wood is slippery when wet and when used for dock surfaces often has accumulated algae or mold growth on the walking surface.
Variety of People – A wide range of people typically visit someone’s house such as young children, parents, and elderly relatives.
