Summary
Step 1 Assess and Plan
Assessing and planning is the important first step to staying in your own home. Take advantage of our free in-home assessment and we will help you begin the Stay at Home planning process.
At a convenient day and time, one of our Certified Senior Advisors (CSA) will come to you for an in-home visit. Your CSA will speak directly to you and any family members who wish to participate about the many benefits of staying in your own home.

Step 3 Your Home is Your Castle
It is important to feel safe and comfortable in your own home. When your Certified Senior Advisor (CSA) visits your home they will evaluate the interior and exterior living areas.
We want you to live safely and comfortably in your home. This may require making modifications or changes to some areas or systems in your home.
You may need to:
- Improve indoor and outdoor lighting to help you see better
- Remove trip hazards to help prevent falls
- Install hand or grab rails to assist in your freedom of movement
- Add a Lifeline to help you in-case of an emergency
We can offer recommendations for companies that know Universal Design and who are fair and reliable. Their suggestions and changes can help you feel more secure in your castle.

Step 4 Physical and Mental Strength
A stronger body and a healthier mind makes it easier to remain independent and stay in your own home. You can help reduce pain, improve posture, promote better balance, build strength and increase health by practicing just a few simple activities.
During the initial assessment, your Certified Senior Advisor (CSA) will conduct several checks to determine your physical and mental strength.
Your CSA wants to evaluate and know about your:
- Balance
- Activity levels
- Seated and standing posture
- Ability to navigate indoors and out
- Short and long-term memory
- Leg and total lower body strength
Based on these checks we will make activity recommendations to help improve your physical and mental strength. An at-home activity program might be just what you need to create a stronger, more balanced body and a healthier mind.
Increasing strength and balance help reduce the risk of falls and other injuries while keeping you active an independent. Learning various brain stimulating activities keeps your mind sharp and memory clear.
A stronger body and mind also allows you to enjoy life more, remain independent longer and stay in your own home for as long as you want. We recommend the Sara Meeks, PT series of activities to keep your body strong and mind relaxed.
