Ageing In Place Design For The Future

Last updated 4 months ago

By: Clifford Leath, 1st Choice Cabinetry Owner

As we get older and our parents get older some of us are beginning to think about remodeling our homes to accommodate either our parents moving in with us rather then sending them to some assisted living environment or we are getting to the stage that we are thinking ahead.

Most of us don’t think about the fact that there are best design practices and “specialists” practicing in this realm of “Ageing In Place”. The fact is that with a little good planning we can make the lives of those we love or our own lives much easier with lifestyle “adjustments” to our living environment through the use of best design practices.

There are local remodelers who specialize in Ageing In Place planning and design. Things like wheelchair access hallways and pathways in the house, specialized shower and tub enclosures, lower heights on countertops or countertops that can be adjusted. Of course there are all kinds of things that can be done in the cabinetry design from an ageing in place standpoint.
