Age In Place With These Home Upgrades

For many seniors, aging at home is a priority. Most people want to remain at home for as long as possible, in a place they love and cherish. For families, it's worth discussing how to make that a reality. In home care services, meal deliveries, home upgrades, and other precautions can create a safe, comfortable environment for seniors in Perry.

At Visiting Angels® Central Georgia, we can help. We work with aging individuals and their families to ensure your loved one has the support they need. In addition to our comprehensive care services, we can offer recommendations on how to improve safety and accessibility. We can recommend home upgrades that make sense for your loved one. Let's take a look.  

How To Upgrade 3 Key Areas Of The Home  

As loved ones age, making small changes throughout the home can decrease the risk of falls while ensuring greater accessibility. Here are a few key areas of the home to focus on, and what to consider: 

  • The bedroom. Many falls happen around or near the bed. Consider adding a railing, so it's easy to climb out of bed. You'll also want to secure rugs with non-slip pads or even tape, for extra safety. If your loved one struggles with getting dressed, it might be helpful for them to have a chair where they can sit as they put on clothes.
  • The bathroom. The tub and the toilet area can also become difficult spaces to navigate around. Think about installing grab bars around these areas, so your family member can access these spaces with greater safety. Bathrooms often suffer from dim lighting. Think about increasing the brightness and range of lights. 
  • Hallways and entrances. You'll want to make sure these areas are brightly lit. Try to keep cords and other fall hazards out of this area completely. Think about installing wall sconces, nightlights, and other wireless fixtures. For the entrance to the home, try to keep shoes and clutter clear of this area completely, using an easy-to-reach cabinet instead.
