    I found the video done well and I will probably use it for my seniors in my church I am a Parish Nurse and always looking for information to share. Thank you.

    I'm glad people are starting to think about and get the word out about safety for seniors. Much needed subject. The term 'your senior' is not offensive in any way. It shows a closeness to the senior you may be a family member for, or a caring person who gives care to them.

    I found the information helpful but the speaker's tone and language irritating. I was looking for a video to show to a class of social work students on working with older adults. I might print out some of the information, but will not show the video.

    I just watched the home safety video and, quite frankly, I found it completely offensive. Ms Albers referred to "your senior" throughout as if the senior was a passive possession of a more capable younger person. Language is important, Home Instead. You get a failing grade.

      Does it really matter? I am sure there was no offense meant by the term "your senior". This is very informative and helpful information. I don't think that my older, mature, senior, elderly Mother or Father would care what I called them. They would just appreciate that I cared enough for them and their safety to even research or read this information.
