The Apple watch sounds good! I didn't know they did all those things. Do they replace cell phones? I'll look into getting one.
I don't have any area rugs at all for the reason you stated. I keep the rooms in my home free of clutter that you can trip on.
I love bright lights! I have more 100 watt bulbs than most people but I see well with them!
I will look into having someone check on me daily. Other people have suggested this to me also. It makes sense.
Thank you for the good suggestions!

@pml. I have an Apple Watch and an Apple iPhone. The Apple Watch can be synced with your iPhone with bluetooth and you have to have your iPhone in range of Apple Watch to use it as your device for calling and receiving calls.
You can also get an Apple Watch that is set up for cell phone service. That's what I did. There are additional charges with your cell phone company if you decide that you want an Apple Watch to use for messaging (texts), email, and phone calls when you don't have your iPhone with you.

You can get a cellular Apple Watch. The volume isn't as loud as a "real" cell phone and, of course, the screen is smaller so it's harder to see things like text messages but it does have decent accessibility features meaning it will read your texts to you and you can respond by voice instead of having to type on a VERY tiny keyboard. It also costs $10-$15 a month for cell service. If you already have an iPhone the watch can connect to that from pretty far away (basically, for me, anywhere in my house) and you don't need to pay the extra $$.
