Assessment & Home Evaluation
Taking the first step to creating an environment for someone to live independently at home, is to assess what their needs are. Everyone ages differently and will need assistance in their own way. Our assessment is designed to determine what accommodations are needed by evaluating the state of the current home and your situation.
​
Planning ahead enables you to live independently in the comfort of your home for longer. After the assessment has been completed, we return a summary with recommendations on the areas that are most important to modify for independent living.
Health Evaluation
The first part of the assessment is dedicated to evaluating your present and future health conditions. We'll consider any urgent medical requirements and potential accessibility challenges. By understanding the specific obstacles you encounter, we can devise more effective solutions tailored to your current and future needs.

Home Evaluation
The second phase of the assessment concentrates on your home's condition. Priority will be given to particular rooms that see frequent use or any areas of concern. These spaces will form the foundation of our recommendations, as it is crucial to have a home tailored to your needs.
