Did you know that more and more seniors are choosing to stay in their homes instead of moving to assisted living facilities?
Today, that’s possible thanks to advanced technology and home healthcare services.
80% of seniors believe they will stay in their current home forever.
But seniors’ houses are not always completely ready to be used for aging in place, especially older ones.
These are the main upgrades your house needs for aging in place:
- Add ramps
- Improve lighting
- Install senior-friendly flooring
- Use smart home technology
- Add handrails
- Minimize height difference
- Install a stairlift
- Use a specialized smoke alarm
- Install cooling and heating systems
- Choose levers instead of knobs
