Helping families create safer, more accessible homes is what we do! After making recommended changes, this client’s father now feels safer and more independent in his home. That’s what aging in place is all about! 🏡

Thinking about a home safety assessment for yourself or a loved one? We’re here to help! ✅

Such a great experience working alongside UIndy OT doctoral students during their community fieldwork rotation. They provided so much more than connections and resources for aging in place - OTs just get it 😌

Our client recently experienced a severe fall resulting in multiple spinal fractures. Her family’s promise to stay home by herself quickly seemed impossible.
“It wasn’t until In Home Preferred came into her home and made multiple recommendations to modify her downstairs that we were able to assure she could continue living by herself.”
We are honored to be able to enable continued independence. Thank you Speer family for your kind words! 🩷

Meet Anna! ✨

Anna Dwenger is a fellow Occupational Therapist (OT) and graduate of the University of Indianapolis. She has taken a pause in clinical practice and applying her talents in the world of real estate. 🏡 How awesome!

Why is this important?

An OT has a trained eye for functional space. We take a holistic approach when problem solving and keep the client and their needs as the number one priority. Whether she is providing clinical treatment or looking for homes, Anna has the same perspective: 
“I learned how to meet people where they are, whether learning something new or rebuilding something out of what feels like nothing. I love that I can use my skill set to help in a new way.” 🩷

At In Home Preferred, we’re here to help you age safely in your home environment. In some cases, moving into a new space might be the best choice for enhanced safety. Anna is uniquely qualified as a realtor to assist clients who are aging, need home modifications, or need space for new roles! ✨

You have options! And you don’t have to make the decision alone. 🏡

NEW YEAR, NEW BATHROOM! ✨

Check out this before and after of our most recent project. 👀

There was a lot of change made to this space, including:
- Entirely new layout to increase ease of access (I mean this room looks 5x bigger)
- Reversed entry door
- Non-slip Floors
- Walk-in Shower (with wide enough doorway)
- Grab bars with client centered placement
- Hand held shower head and mount (placed for clients best use)
- Removable rug and chair for other shower users

We loved getting to design this space. Increased safety ➡️ increased happy!

All thanks to Owens Home and Interior for their amazing work. They’ve been wonderful! ⭐️

No big or expensive renovation here!
Our client has done laundry in this basement space for years. The stairs are becoming more difficult and they create a huge fall risk when carrying laundry. SOO we decided to have the laundry machines moved UPSTAIRS near an entryway not frequently used! We ensured the doorway width was appropriate, cabinets available for storage, water hook ups/ventilation, and that there was enough room to actually DO the act of laundry as safely as possible.
Our goal is to keep you independent with the things you want/need to do! We’re glad to help - big or small 😁
