Age in Place With These Home Upgrades

With our in home care across the Lincoln Park area, Visiting Angels^® Chicago Lakeshore helps local seniors live happier lives. We understand seniors are far better off aging in place, and our service is aimed at providing the help they need to make that possible. In addition, we would also like to recommend some valuable home safety modifications that will increase their comfort and limit fall hazards within the residence. 

It's important to enhance safety in the bathroom, since many falls happen while entering or exiting the shower. If it's possible to install a walk-in shower unit, this can make a huge difference. We highly encourage you to install grab bars to give them something to hold onto while standing on the wet surface. Also, non-slip floor mats make a great addition to the bathroom floor. 

Reduced vision and mobility can put them at risk of falling at any time, so adding extra lighting around the home is always a great idea. 

If your loved one has arthritis, door knobs can be very uncomfortable. We recommend switching out to levers and upgrading their sinks with light sensor technology.

All of these small upgrades can make a big impact on their comfort level. However, the most important aspect of their continued home life, is to secure our in home care. We are ready to step in and deliver the kind of help they need to stay safe and avoid the traumatic move to an assisted living facility.
