The safest way to pick up an elderly person who has fallen down is to first assess for any injuries and call for medical assistance if needed. Then, kneel down beside them, gently help them to a seated position, and support their back while helping them stand up slowly. Encourage them to move slowly and avoid sudden movements to prevent further injury.
