What is Aging in Place?

This column will discuss what is Aging in Place (AIP) with regards to aging at home.

As a Certified Aging in Place Specialist (CAPS) from the National Builders Association, and a licensed General Contractor, we can remodel and build improvements to homes for those wanting their home to be safe and accessible regardless of age, physical, mobility or cognitive issues.

Ninety percent of elders want to stay in the home they love. AIP allows us to modify things to accommodate changes as events unfold. It allows more enjoyment of your home and planned properly with Universal Design accessibility (that offers a non institutional look) your home will increase in value when you are ready to sell. Most importantly it makes your home more livable promoting independent living and daily tasks become simpler and easier to do.
