Home Accessibility-Modifications:
A great benefit of making home modifications is that they promote independence and prevent accidents. According to a recent AARP housing survey, “83% of older Americans want to stay in their current homes for the rest of their lives,” but other studies indicate that most homes are not designed to accommodate the needs of people over age 65. Many older people live in homes that are more than 20 years old. As these buildings age along with their residents, they may become harder to live in or maintain. Here are companies that can help you with these needs:
