Evaluating a senior’s ability to safely age in place is a complex process.
Research shows that approximately three-quarters of Americans age 50 and older
want to continue living in their own homes for as long as possible, according to
the AARP. But for this plan to work, a senior’s home must be suitable for aging
in place despite the emergence of any new or worsening health issues and
functional limitations.



Implementing safety measures and universal design principles is one way of
ensuring an older adult’s current home will remain safe, functional, and
comfortable as they age. Nanette Pfister, vice president of sales for Epcon
Communities based in Dublin, Ohio, points to the importance of creating a home
environment that supports one’s lifestyle now and in the future. Pfister
emphasizes that every area of an existing home can be adapted to help prevent
falls, injuries, and accidents.

In addition to home modifications that aim to keep seniors safe, home care
services can help in several important ways — watching for environmental
hazards, assisting with daily activities, providing companionship, and more.
Read on to learn what you can do to ensure your elderly loved one’s safety at
home and how in-home caregivers can help.




HOME SAFETY FOR SENIORS: MODIFICATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

To devise a customized solution for helping a loved one age in place, walk
through their residence and carefully assess each room together. Jot down any
current or potential hazards that should be addressed, and consider the
following suggestions for modifications and improvements that will promote
independent living. If you don’t feel comfortable identifying home safety
issues, a home care provider can organize a professional assessment for you.


GENERAL HOME SAFETY TIPS

 * Move furniture to create clear walking paths.
 * Ensure light switches are accessible by placing them no higher than 48 inches
   from the floor, and replace toggle switches with rocker switches.
 * Improve overall lighting in the home. Light dark pathways or countertop areas
   with easy-to-install rope lighting. Add task lights and night lights wherever
   needed.
 * Add grips to doorknobs or replace them with levered handles or pulls.
 * Mark any steps or changes in floor level with tape or paint in a contrasting
   color.
 * Remove loose carpeting and unnecessary throw rugs/mats. Secure area rugs with
   double-sided rug tape, making sure to focus on corners and edges.
 * Remove any electric and cable cords that run across or near walkways. Place
   all wiring behind furniture or secure cords neatly against walls with clips,
   cable staples, or cord covers.
 * Ensure that seating throughout the home is sturdy, ideally with supportive
   arms to make sitting and standing easier. Consider an electric lift chair as
   a cozy and helpful addition to the home.
 * Remove clutter by donating or disposing of items that are no longer needed.
 * Make sure trash receptacles are easily accessible from inside the home and
   can be brought to the curb without difficulty. In-home caregivers can also
   take out the trash for seniors, which is especially helpful in icy conditions
   or during winter months.
 * Consider repurposing a closet or other area on the ground floor into a
   laundry room if laundry machines are located on an upper floor or basement of
   a multi-level home. Replace top-loading machines with front-loading
   appliances that are easier to use. If necessary, laundry can be outsourced to
   a laundry service or added to the tasks completed by a home care aide.
 * Ensure smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors are placed in all key areas
   of the home. Test them and change the batteries regularly.

Each room and space in your loved one’s home serves a unique purpose and may
have specific challenges to address. The following suggestions are room-by-room
modifications that family caregivers can make that will help enhance home safety
for seniors.


ENTRYWAY SAFETY TIPS

Make sure foyers and home entryways are easily accessible by reviewing these
suggestions.

 * Clear a convenient path from the driveway to the entry of the home.
 * Inspect all walkways for cracks, loose bricks or stones, and uneven surfaces.
   Repair any flaws to provide a level walking surface free of trip hazards.
 * Consider installing a doorbell with a camera or a mailbox alert so seniors
   know when someone is at their home.
 * Remove or trim landscaping so that walking paths are wide enough for someone
   using a wheelchair or walker.
 * Install handrails on both sides of any entry stairs. Ensure stair treads are
   nonslip and deep enough to accommodate the whole foot.
 * Evaluate if there is room to install a ramp. Stepless entries make it easier
   and safer to gain access, whether the person is in a wheelchair or using a
   mobility aid like a walker or cane. Install threshold ramps wherever
   possible.
 * Evaluate the security of the front door. Are the locks sturdy and easy to
   operate? Is there a window panel or peephole in the proper location?
 * Add swing-clear hinges to doors or hire a contractor to widen existing
   doorways to accommodate mobility aids.


KITCHEN SAFETY TIPS

The following tips can help ensure kitchens are safe spaces for seniors.

 * Replace knobs on cabinets and drawers with levers or pulls.
 * Keep a long-handled grabber in the kitchen to reach objects that may be out
   of reach. This can reduce a senior’s temptation to use a step stool or
   another unstable device.
 * Move frequently used items from high shelves and under-the-counter cabinets
   to more accessible locations that do not require reaching up or leaning down.
 * Consider the functionality of older appliances. Ideally, oven controls should
   be placed at the front of the range rather than toward the rear to prevent
   reaching over the stove burners. Knobs should be clearly labeled and easy to
   use. A thin layer of paraffin wax or petroleum jelly can be rubbed around the
   gasket of a refrigerator door that is difficult to open.
 * Replace small appliances, such as coffee makers and toaster ovens, with
   models that have an automatic shut-off feature.
 * Use colorful dishes, utensils, and cookware that contrast with the color of
   countertops, tabletops, and storage areas to help an elder with poor eyesight
   navigate the kitchen.
 * Use thermometers and timers with flashing lights to alert someone who is hard
   of hearing that dinner’s ready.
 * Use a “Lazy Susan” to increase access to out-of-reach items on the dining
   table, on shelves, and in cabinets.


BEDROOM SAFETY TIPS

A senior’s bedroom should be a welcoming space where they feel comfortable.
These recommendations can help keep their room cozy and secure.

 * Adjust the height of the bed for easy transfers. A senior should be able to
   sit on the edge of the bed with their knees bent and their feet flat on the
   floor. Add height with risers or a taller bedframe if it’s too low. If it’s
   too high, consider removing or replacing the box spring with a low-profile
   box spring or purchasing a lower bedframe.
 * Add pull-up devices under the mattress to assist with sitting up when in bed.
 * Keep a working flashlight in the nightstand for emergencies.
 * Consider setting up a bedside commode if nighttime trips to the bathroom are
   common.


BATHROOM SAFETY TIPS

Bathrooms can be challenging spaces for seniors. They often feature slippery
flooring materials that become even more dangerous when wet from sink or shower
spray. Consider the following safety modifications.

 * Install grab bars for additional support while toileting and while getting
   into and out of the shower/bath.
 * Consider installing motion-activated night lights along the path to the
   bathroom to make nighttime trips safer and more convenient. Abundant lighting
   for the overall space as well as tasks is essential. Special waterproof
   incandescent lights should be placed in the ceiling of the shower and over
   the tub for extra visibility.
 * Set the water heater to 120 degrees Fahrenheit or lower, and clearly label
   hot and cold faucets. Consider installing anti-scald devices on faucets to
   prevent burns.
 * Ensure showers have a step-free entry. Step-in tub models feature a door for
   easy entrance and exit. The shower/tub should be fitted with a seat, a
   hand-held showerhead, and a niche or shelf at a convenient height so bath
   products can be reached easily. A large, zero-entry shower with a bench will
   allow one to roll a wheelchair in and bathe.
 * Add non-skid decals to any slippery areas in the bathroom. If possible,
   floors should be slip-resistant wood, vinyl, or tile with a lot of grout for
   traction.
 * Fit all cabinets and drawers with levers or pulls rather than knobs.
 * Consider installing a comfort-height toilet, which is a few inches taller
   than standard models, or adding a toilet seat riser to an existing toilet.
   This is especially important following joint replacements and may help during
   arthritis flare-ups. The extra height allows for easier toileting, especially
   if one must transfer to and from a wheelchair.

Making simple home modifications is an easy way that family caregivers can
support loved ones aging in place. Applying the tips above can make any senior’s
home safer and more accessible. However, you may begin to notice that your
parent could benefit from additional help around the house.




EXPERT GUIDANCE TO KEEP YOUR LOVED ONE SAFE: HOME CARE SERVICES AND SENIOR
RESOURCES

Adding supportive care is another good option to help keep your parent secure in
their space. Safe home care services range from assistance with activities of
daily living (ADLs) to transportation. In-home care can help seniors age safely
in place and delay or avoid the transition to a senior living community.

Home care aides can help with the following:

Senior Care Guides

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 * Assessing hazards around the house and making suggestions for reducing fall
   risks throughout the home
 * Keeping the home clean and tidy
 * Monitoring your loved one’s medical status to make sure they’re healthy
   enough to continue safely living on their own
 * Reminding seniors to take medications as prescribed and watching for
   potential side effects
 * Offering much-needed socialization and camaraderie for older adults

Another resource for helping improve home safety for seniors is the local Area
Agency on Aging (AAA). AAA offices coordinate local services that support
elderly adults aging in place. Their services differ depending on the location
of the agency, but many help facilitate safety inspections, meal deliveries,
social and recreational activities, home repairs, and more. Explore their
services and identify an Area Agency on Aging near your loved one.

AgingCare can help connect you with local home care services to help your parent
age in place gracefully. Being proactive about meeting a senior’s current and
emerging needs will extend their independence, boost their confidence, and give
family caregivers invaluable peace of mind.

Acknowledgement of Disclosures and Authorization
By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:

I.    How We Work in Washington.

Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of
our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide
your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The
Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services.

APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility
to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both
you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our
Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.


II.   How We Are Paid.

We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities.
Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard
rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the
senior moves in.

III.  When We Tour.
APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in
metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to
December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity
for 20 or more residents.

IV.  No Obligation or Commitment.

You have no obligation to use or to continue to use our services. Because you
pay no fee to us, you will never need to ask for a refund.

V.   Complaints.

Please contact our Family Feedback Line at (866) 584-7340 or
ConsumerFeedback@aplaceformom.com to report any complaint. Consumers have many
avenues to address a dispute with any referral service company, including the
right to file a complaint with the Attorney General's office at: Consumer
Protection Division, 800 5th Avenue, Ste. 2000, Seattle, 98104 or 800-551-4636.

VI.  No Waiver of Your Rights.

APFM does not (and may not) require or even ask consumers seeking senior housing
or care services in Washington State to sign waivers of liability for losses of
personal property or injury or to sign waivers of any rights established under
law.

I agree that:


A.
I authorize A Place For Mom ("APFM") to collect certain personal and contact
detail information, as well as relevant health care information about me or from
me about the senior family member or relative I am assisting ("Senior Living
Care Information").


B.
APFM may provide information to me electronically. My electronic signature on
agreements and documents has the same effect as if I signed them in ink.


C.
APFM may send all communications to me electronically via e-mail or by access to
an APFM web site.


D.
If I want a paper copy, I can print a copy of the Disclosures or download the
Disclosures for my records.


E.
This E-Sign Acknowledgement and Authorization applies to these Disclosures and
all future Disclosures related to APFM's services, unless I revoke my
authorization. You may revoke this authorization in writing at any time (except
where we have already disclosed information before receiving your revocation.)
This authorization will expire after one year.


F.
You consent to APFM's reaching out to you using a phone system than can
auto-dial numbers (we miss rotary phones, too!), but this consent is not
required to use our service.

I Acknowledge & Authorize I consent to the collection of my consumer health
data.* I consent to the sharing of my consumer health data with qualified home
care agencies.* *If I am consenting on behalf of someone else, I have the proper
authorization to do so. By clicking Get My Results, you agree to our Privacy
Policy. You also consent to receive calls and texts, which may be autodialed,
from us and our customer communities. Your consent is not a condition to using
our service. Please visit our Terms of Use for information about our privacy
practices.
