Senior Safety 101: Expert Advice from Mike Dandridge of CD Risk Consulting

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
