Aging in Place

If you’re like the majority of Americans over the age of 45, you want to continue living in a familiar environment throughout your maturing years. According to AARP, older home owners overwhelmingly prefer to age in place, which means living in your home safely, independently and comfortably, regardless of age or ability level.

To age-in-place you will probably need to modify your house as you mature to increase access and maneuverability. These modifications range from the installation of bath and shower grab bars and adjustment of countertop heights to the creation of multifunctional first floor master suites and the installation of private elevators.

Certified Aging in Place Specialists (CAPS) professionals have the answers to your questions. I know it because I’m a “baby-boomer” and a CAPS. We have been taught the strategies and techniques for designing and building aesthetically enriching, barrier-free living environments.
