Aging at Home remodeling solutions

Remodeling your home today for a comfortable and safe tomorrow!

Let me tell you a story about a wonderful couple I know.  They are in their mid 70’s and had a beautiful  home. They raised their family and lived there for over 30 years.  While they loved their home, medical conditions dictated the move to an assisted living retirement community because the stairs were getting hard to climb and the husband was in a wheelchair that bumped into everything. The retirement community is very nice, but they wish they had been able to stay in their familiar surroundings.  I thought about this and learned about aging in place.

 In plain English, aging at home, also called aging-in-place means:
Remaining in one's home safely, independently, and comfortably, regardless of age, income, or ability level. It means the pleasure of living in a familiar environment throughout one's maturing years, and the ability to enjoy the familiar daily rituals and the special events that enrich all our lives. It means the reassurance of being able to call a house a ‘home’ for a lifetime”
–As defined by National Association of Home Builders (NAHB)

Studies have shown that the cost to remodel an existing home is far less expensive and has a much more lasting benefit than living in a senior care facility.  With healthcare costs rising, Aging at Home is becoming the preferred choice for our aging population.  The emotional, financial, and physical benefit of retro-fitting one’s home is the key to a longer and healthier life.
