This project involves conducting a home safety check visit for an elderly individual, culminating in a detailed report of identified hazards and actionable recommendations. The final tangible outcome is a comprehensive, easy-to-understand safety assessment document, complete with prioritized suggestions for mitigating risks and a list of local resources for follow-up support. This demonstrates the capability to systematically evaluate real-world environments for safety, communicate findings effectively, and connect individuals with necessary assistance.
It is geared for individuals who are detail-oriented, possess strong interpersonal skills, and are driven by a desire to provide direct, tangible support within their community. This project is for those who appreciate clear objectives, practical application, and immediate positive impact.
