🎃 Halloween Reminder — Safety Tips 🎃

Halloween is almost here — Friday, October 31st!It’s a wonderful time to enjoy fall festivities, connect with your community, and share in the spooky fun. Whether you’re passing out candy, decorating your home, or spending time with loved ones, it’s important to keep safety and comfort in mind — especially for seniors.

Here are some helpful Halloween safety tips for older adults and caregivers:

🕯️ Keep pathways clear and well-lit – If you expect visitors, make sure your porch and walkways are free of leaves, cords, or decorations that could cause a fall.🎭 Avoid tripping hazards indoors – Move rugs or décor that could get in the way if you’re greeting trick-or-treaters.🍬 Enjoy treats safely – Check candy or snacks for safety before eating, especially if you have dietary restrictions or medical conditions like diabetes.📞 Stay connected – If you live alone, consider inviting a friend, family member, or caregiver to spend the evening together for company and reassurance.💡 Choose comfort over costume – If you’re dressing up, pick lightweight, comfortable clothing that won’t restrict movement or vision.

Halloween can be just as enjoyable for seniors as it is for kids — it’s all about community, laughter, and a touch of seasonal fun.

From all of us at Homestay Services, we wish you a safe, happy, and heartwarming Halloween! 🎃👻🧡
