Aging - in - place
Aging-in-place is the ability to live in your own home and community safely, independently, and comfortably, regardless of age, income or ability level.
It means being able to call your house a “home” for a lifetime
Most older adults want to stay in the home they love — and with the right preparation, they can.
Aging in place isn't just a preference; it's a path to greater independence, dignity, and well-being.

assessment
As a Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist, I realize that every person who lives in the home has different needs. It is important to me that the process of assessing needs and identifying solutions is a collaborative effort.
Identifying Accessibility Needs
I conduct a thorough in-home assessment to identify potential safety issues or accessibility needs, looking at each resident individually, and how they move through their home.
Tailored Solutions
I then craft a report tailored to each persons' specific needs, describing specific modifications that will it easier to move throughout their home from the outside in.
