Aging In Place | Accessibility

According to AIPatHome, Aging in place (i.e. 'age in place') is the ability to live in one's own home, wherever that might be, for as long as confidently and comfortably possible.  Livability can be extended through the incorporation of universal design principles, telecare and other assistive technologies.  These technologies also span categories of communication and engagement, health and wellness, home safety and security, and learning and contribution.

Individuals are encouraged to remain in their community, as they grow older. Aging in place refers to people living as independently as possible, using products and services to enable them to stay in their communities as their needs change. Aging in place is especially applicable to the home and supportive living streams of the continuing care system.

A Naples, FL homeowner was having a hard time with existing stairs due to health issues.  After careful consideration, it was decided that modification of  an existing deck to allow for an elevator lift made the most sense.  The addition of the elevator lift gives him easier accessibility.  Click here for more information on residential elevator lifts.
