  2. Make plenty of space Space plays an important role in a senior-friendly living room. Always make sure that the room has wide, straight paths and leave enough space for moving around with walker or wheelchair. Place the tables and chairs so that elderly people can access them easily. Choose the right furniture Always prefer chairs and couches that provide support. Sturdy armrests help seniors to get in and out of furniture easily. Avoid using furniture that are very soft, as it can make it harder to get out when needed. Use cushions and pillows to provide enhanced comfort.

  3. Lighting and electronics Proper lighting is very necessary for a senior-friendly living room. Always use bright and clear lighting so it does not cause eye strain. Use nightlights and table lamps, and add remote-controlled lightings so that the older adults can change the settings without getting up. Don’t overlook the floors In a living room, it is necessary to ensure safety for seniors, and that starts with floors. Avoid using slippery floors such as vinyl, tiles, or natural stone. Use low-pile carpets instead of shag. Low-pile carpets are easy to clean and allows easy navigation with wheelchairs and walkers.
