Keep It Within Easy Reach

Arrange frequently used items where you can reach them comfortably and safely.

Practical idea

Reaching for the same awkward shelf every day can make a simple task more demanding. You might move a few often-used items to a spot you can reach comfortably from your usual position. Start with one area rather than reorganizing the whole room.

Try the new spot during an ordinary task and notice whether it creates another problem. A basket that is easy to reach still needs to leave enough room to move safely. An occupational therapist can help you think through storage that fits your space and access needs.

Try it

  1. Choose three items you use often.
  2. Move them to a comfortable, stable location.
  3. Check that doors and walking paths stay clear.

Make it yours

There's no one right way. A few other directions people take it:

  • Keep a small set of supplies at each place you use them.
  • Use clear labels so you can find items without searching.
