In Home Care in Hillsboro

Age in Place With These Home Upgrades

If you want to keep your elderly loved one living in the comfort of their own home, you'll need a support plan. The most important aspect is to secure support from a reliable caregiver. At Visiting Angels^® Portland, we offer in home care across the Hillsboro area. Our service is all about giving them critical help and loving companionship, making home life safer, simpler, and less lonely. To boost our efforts, we have some tips for home modifications to increase their safety and comfort. 

The bathroom is the first place to start. This area is a big hazard for many seniors, as many falls happen in the shower or tub. With reduced mobility and other physical skills, the simple act of getting in or out of the shower can be very tough. That's why metal grab bars are such a great addition. Additionally, non-slip floor mats will significantly boost safety as well. 

For comfort, a walk-in shower makes things a lot easier. The same can be said for hand-held shower heads and light sensor faucets. Also, door knobs are really hard on those with arthritis, so consider switching to levers. 

With these safety tips, you can fortify their home and significantly reduce the risk of a serious accident. However, the most vital way to improve their comfort is to have a warm, friendly, and qualified presence delivering care. Our caregivers work hard to provide support, companionship, and everything your loved one needs to continue aging in place.
