As the wet weather lingers in many parts of Australia, small home maintenance issues can quietly turn into major safety risks — especially for people with limited mobility or disability support needs.

At KS Life Care, we believe that a safe home is the foundation of good care — and that rainy day home safety is essential for wellbeing and independence.

Whether you're living in a busy city or a quiet regional town, our support services are here to help you maintain rainy day home safety, keeping your space dry, secure, and functional throughout the season.


🌧️ Our Simple Rainy Day Home Safety Checklist:


  1. Inspect for leaks around windows, ceilings, and doors

    Small drips can lead to mould or slippery floors.

  2. Wipe down damp surfaces

    → Kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry areas are especially prone to excess moisture.


  3. Secure floor mats and rugs

    → Loose or wet mats increase the risk of slips and falls.


  4. Clear walkways and entryways

    → Keep shoes, umbrellas, and other items from blocking paths.


  5. Check outdoor areas

    → Are ramps and steps safe and slip-free? Any pooling water that needs to be addressed?


  6. Report any concerns

    → If you notice any hazards, let your Support Worker know. We’re here to assist with minor repairs and home modifications.
