The aim of this study is to determine the home safety status and associated risks of individuals with neurological disorders. Material and Methods: Eighty-three individuals with neurological disorders living in Denizli constitute the sample group of the study. The Home Safety Checklist was employed in order to evaluate the home safety status of the participants. Results: While 93% of the participants (n=77) were considered to be living in ‘dangerous’ homes, 7% (n=6) had ‘good’ homes according to the Home Safety Checklist scores. In this study’s sample, no participant was considered to be living in a ‘perfect’ home. Conclusion: The results are indicative of the fact that the home safety scores of participants with neurological disorders are very low. In light of this, the environment and living area of the affected individuals should be adapted according to their limitations in such a way so as to enable them to live a barrier-free and easier life.

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı nörolojik bozuklukları olan bireylerin ev güvenliği durumlarını ve buna bağlı riskleri belirlemektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Denizli'de yaşayan nörolojik özrü olan seksen üç birey, araştırmanın örneklem grubunu oluşturmaktadır. Katılımcıların ev güvenlik durumlarını değerlendirmek için Ev Güvenlik Kontrol Listesi kullanılmıştır. Sonuçlar: Ev Güvenlik Kontrol Listesi puanlarına göre, katılımcıların% 93'ü (n = 77) "tehlikeli" evlerde yaşarken, %7'si (n = 6) 'iyi' evlerde yaşamaktaydı. Bu çalışma örnekleminde hiçbir katılımcı "mükemmel" bir evde yaşamamaktaydı. Tartışma: Sonuçlar, nörolojik rahatsızlıkları olan katılımcıların ev güvenliği puanlarının çok düşük olduğunu göstermektedir. Bundan dolayı, etkilenen bireylerin çevresi ve yaşam alanı, bariyersiz ve daha kolay yaşama imkânı verecek şekilde kısıtlılıklarına göre düzenlenmelidir.
