Canadian Patient Safety Week

Did you know 80% of home falls occur in the bathroom? Slippery floors, water, and hard fixtures create high risks—especially for seniors or those with mobility challenges. Canadian Patient Safety Week (October 27–31) is the perfect time to focus on prevention. Simple upgrades like grab bars, non-slip mats, raised toilet seats, and walk-in tubs can dramatically lower fall risks. Bright lighting and clutter-free floors add extra protection. CPSW unites Canadians in making care safer at home and in healthcare settings. Together, we can protect health, preserve independence, and give families peace of mind.
