Press Release Summary: Helpful Products That Make Your Independent Senior More
Secure and Give You Peace of Mind

Press Release Body: According to estimates by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission (CPSC), "nearly one million people over age 65 are treated in hospital
emergency rooms for injuries associated with the products they live with and use
everyday." To help those looking for ways of keeping their senior loved ones safer,
Home Sweet Home Improvements compiled this simple list with intentions of helping
you create a safer living environment. CPSC says "Slips and falls are the main
source of injury for older people in the home", therefore many of these products are
listed to help prevent falls.

1. TUBSAFE Anti-Slip Bathtub and Shower Treatment - TubSafe®, a simple
do-it-yourself treatment that once applied to your bathtub or shower surface.
TubSafe® works only on porcelain, enamel, ceramic surfaces, even unsealed concrete!
DOES NOT WORK ON PLASTIC OR FIBERGLASS. Found at ElderEstore.com

2. Alert One Medical Alarms for Home - The heart of the medical alert service is the
medical alarm system itself. When you press your medical alert personal help button
a signal is transmitted to the medical alarm which seizes your phone line and
immediately contacts an Alert One monitoring center. Within moments a real person is
talking to you, and ready to get you help. 24 Hours a day, seven days a week someone
is there when you need them. Found at Alert-1.com

3. Powered Strobe Smoke Detector with Battery Backup - The Gentex 7109LS offers
protection day or night. When smoke is detected, the bright 177 candela strobe will
flash approximately 60 times per minute and will also sound a 90dB alarm signal. In
the event of a power failure the 9VDC battery back up will still sound the alarm
without the strobe light. From elderEstore.com

bright LED lights come on when motion is sensed within 10 feet, goes off after about
