Replace Motion Light Batteries (Aging-in-Place)

Why it matters

Dead batteries in bedroom or bathroom nightlights remove fall prevention; seniors navigating dark stairs or bathrooms at night face serious injury risk.

How to do it

• 1

  Remove each motion light and check battery voltage with a multimeter

• 2

  Replace with fresh alkaline batteries (note size: AA, AAA, or 9V per label)

• 3

  Reinstall light and test motion detection by walking past it

• 4

  Check that LED brightness is normal (dim = low battery)
