How to Walk Safe in the Rain ☔️

Nov 05, 2019

It’s raining cats & dogs here in Maine today ☔️ so I wanted to give you tips for walking safe in the rain!
.
1️⃣ - Using a cane in the rain can be very dangerous (especially if you are putting a lot of weight through it). They slip easily 😳. If possible, using a steadier assistive device, like a walker or rollator.
.
2️⃣ - Walk slower & look down to see where you are placing your feet & cane!
.
3️⃣ - Make sure you are placing the cane fully FLAT on the ground. This will give you the •MOST stability•... Don’t place the back end on the ground then roll it forward as you step through.
