What is Aging in Place?
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 special events that enrich all of our lives. It is the reassurance of being able to call your house a “home” for a lifetime. How Long Do You Plan to Live in Your Current Home? If you are 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 the AARP, older homeowners overwhelmingly prefer to age-in-place. How Should You Modify Your Home to Make it More Comfortable? To age-in-place, you will probably need to modify your house as you get older to increase maneuverability. These modifications range from installing bath and shower grab bars and adjusting countertop heights to creating multi-functional first floor master suites. Who Can You Rely on to Modify Your Home? A Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist (CAPS) has been trained in:
- The unique needs of the older adult population
- Aging-in-place home modifications
- Typical remodeling projects
- Solutions to common barriers
When considering modifying your home, ask yourself:
- Do I want to add a bathroom and possibly a bedroom to the main level?
- How can I make my kitchen more functional?
- Am I worried about preventing falls?
- How much money can I budget for this project?
- Will I need to get a home equity loan?
- Will other members of my family benefit from these modifications?
- Will remodeling increase the energy efficiency of my home?
- Where can I find a professional I can consult with about my needs?
