Universal Design

Aging in place incorporates universal design principles which focuses on creating safe and comfortable environments. Universal design allows ease of movement within spaces for everyone, including those using mobility aids such as walkers and wheelchairs. Good universal design blends into your existing home and enhances its functionality!

Home Accessibility

As you age or your disability progresses, you may notice that you are using less and less of their home. If you're experiencing this, we're here to help you reclaim your living spaces and enjoy your home once again. Our experts can work with you to identify low-cost features that can enhance your ability to safely and fully enjoy your home. These features can include grab bars, walker steps, ramps, handrails, and durable medical equipment items such as shower chairs, toilet risers, bed rails, and lift chairs. We're your all-in-one resource for all your accessibility needs.

Smart Home Technology

In addition to making modifications to the home with safety items like grab bars, a ramp, or smart home technology can be a great addition offering safety features and ease of use; for items such as lighting, door locks, thermostats, appliances, and home security systems.

Smart technology can also provide peace of mind to family members who want to stay connected with loved ones aging in place. Sensors can alert a family member living across the country that their loved one is up and out of bed for the day; this can reduce or eliminate the need for frequent calls.

Virtual assistants such as Amazon Echo, Google Home, or Siri can also provide ways to stay connected to loved ones via video calling, allowing friends and family to communicate with each other in real time. These devices can also act as a companion to combat loneliness and isolation.
