     For safe living at home, practicing senior balance exercises can be helpful for those who struggle with disorganization issues and accompanying consequences. Please see    http://www.exerciseforbalance.com/buy-now You or someone you know may be effected by what medical professionals call "Chronic Disorganization."  Chronic disorganization (CD) affects many seniors and can be related to situational changes such as death of a loved, downsizing, and illness.   Chronic disorganization  seniors are able to live in their homes, but have organizational issues.  Chronic disorganization is characterized by disorganization that has persisted for a long period of time, has a negative impact on quality daily life, has not responded to repeated self-helps, and is expected to continue into the future.  Signs of  Chronic disorganization can be noticed as piles of unpaid pills, dishes not washed, and housekeeping is lacking, household items are in disarray, which could be a safety issue leading to a fall and subsequent injury. Many seniors have difficulties with organizing their environment for several reasons including physical and mental health illnesses, difficulties with vision, and lessened physical mobility. Many times they do not see it as an issue because they adapt their lifestyle to their environment. For example, if clutter piles up in the living room on a chair or even on the floor, the senior may start to use the clutter as a handrail as she moves through the room. Most people would see this situation as a safety hazard, but your mother or loved one may look at the clutter as a useful handrail. If they are having troubling keeping track of their medications, losing them or knowing when to take them, they are many services that can help. Additionally, you can explain to them that you notice that they may be having some difficulty in keeping their home clear of clutter and that you are afraid of them falling. You can offer to help sort through items as well as help them get started on a senior balance exercise program to reduce the risk of falling.
