Use a cordless phone to help

door bell may be used to call for
help.
Install a night light.
Consider placing a commode
or urinal next to the bed at
night to avoid the need to
walk when sleepy.
Ensure that the bed is of a correct height.
You should be able to place your feet

edge of the bed.
Place walking aids close to
the bed.
