We’re a little more put together on a home assessment, I promise. 😅
.
Launching In Home Preferred has come with its forced pivots and inevitable challenges (including social media 🤦🏼♀️).
.
In the beginning, we jumped in with the expectation of assessing homes, suggesting home modifications, and overseeing projects.
But we now understand the need for advocacy - especially when prioritizing safety while aging in place and the role of OT. Don’t forget providing A TON of education on what that entails exactly.
.
Occupational therapists (OT) have a crucial role in assessing functional space for aging in place. We have expertise in understanding how physical, cognitive, and emotional factors interact with a persons daily activities and living spaces. Our OT background and holistic approach gives us full advantage on prepping your home for your future!

Still working on the social media part 😉

The most important space is the space most used - your home. If you or your loved one plan on staying home forever, let’s design for independence, safety, and peace of mind together. 🏡✨

Quick project plan complete! ✅
Our assessment called for a few changes in this bathroom space to increase safety. Our 3D floor planning software really brings the project to life and allows for the client to visualize the space.
(My favorite part of the project planning process 🤭)
As Aging in Place Specialists and Occupational Therapists, we love finding potential in a space. Call for an assessment of your forever home!

Our client is very independent and active, we want to keep it that way! Here are just a few of the simple changes we recommended to her:
Opening narrow doorways will improve mobility with any future use of assistive device and decrease risk for falls. We also recommended installing a few grab bars/railings in the high traffic areas to improve safety. Her patio area is beautiful and one of her main priorities, so making simple changes to her deck will make it more accessible for everyday use.
