Fall prevention in the district of Conthey
DomusHelp helps organize practical support to reduce the risk of falls at home in the district of Conthey and Central Valais. This subcategory concerns small everyday adjustments: obstacles on the floor, slipping rugs, cluttered passages, insufficient lighting, simple supports, thresholds, stairs, night-time movement and visual reference points in the home. The interventions must remain simple, non-medical, non-structural and adapted to the person’s real situation.
What this help covers
This help may involve identifying small visible risks in the home: a slipping rug, a cable on the floor, poorly placed furniture, a dark area, a narrow passage, an object that is difficult to reach, an obstacle near the bed, a bathroom that is not easy to understand or night-time movement that is not sufficiently safe. The aim is to make the home clearer, simpler and more reassuring without turning the intervention into a medical diagnosis or a technical building project.
Preferred providers
Practical help at home
Suitable for identifying simple obstacles, moving small objects, clearing a passage, improving the readability of a space or reporting an obvious risk.

Craftsperson or building specialist
Suitable when a grab bar needs to be installed, a threshold modified, a staircase secured, fixed lighting improved or a lasting adaptation carried out.
Before the intervention
