Household Safety Checklists

Source: The Nemours Foundation
Topics: Household Safety Checklist

An accident or injury can occur in any part of your home. Some safety hazards are obvious — such as a toy truck left lying at the top of the stairs. Others are not so easily identified — such as a stairway railing that has become loose.

Use these checklists to make a safety check of your home. You should answer "yes" to all of these questions.

To get started, click on a checklist below. Select "Print this page" at the bottom for a printed copy to use as you perform each safety check.
