I recently had the opportunity to share some of my insights on senior safety with SeniorLivingGuide.com Podcast. As a security expert with two decades of experience, I was happy to provide some tips and advice for seniors and caregivers on how to stay safe in various situations1.
In the podcast, I discussed topics such as:
The importance of situational awareness and how to practice it
How to pay attention to the little things that can make a difference in your safety2
How to live your life without being scared, but being prepared
How to set boundaries and protect yourself from unwanted or threatening interactions
How to use non-lethal safety devices such as personal alarms
How to avoid online dating scams and AI scams that target seniors
How to use technology and apps to enhance your safety and independence3
How to communicate with other seniors and staff in your community
I hope you find these tips useful and informative. You can listen to the podcast and read the full blog post here: Staying Safe as a Senior
