Why Conduct a HomeFit Assessment?
Where we call home is a functionally complex “structure” that needs to support a wide range of activities including working, eating, sleeping, bathing, entertaining and so on. However, most homes were not built to support the mobility, sensory and cognitive changes that often accompany aging. As a result the place we call home may not provide sufficient flexibility to support current and anticipated needs to best maintain one's independence, provide safety and promote greater peace-of-mind. A more forgiving home on the other hand, can enhance and adapt to one's unique activities of daily living and should always strive to conform to the individual - not the other way around. |
Consider This:

TellaBoomer's HomeFit Assessments are ideal for friends or family members caring for an aging parent or other loved one. In fact - anyone wanting to stay in the residence of choice they love can begin turning where they live into a "lifelong home," suitable for themselves and anyone residing in their household.
The Goal of Assessment in General
A thorough assessment should yield a plan for meeting needs and addressing problems. An assessment also may lead to resolutions that allow a loved one to remain independent longer. A good plan can mean fewer accidents and illnesses, a longer life, improved quality of life and greater independence. It is important to include your loved one and other family members in the discussion and decision-making about available options once the assessment is complete; involving them in the process should help everyone feel more comfortable with the outcome. |

- Schedule a follow-up meeting to discuss findings and present recommended next-steps to consider regarding solutions that range from simple do-it-yourself fixes, to improvements that require skilled expertise but are well worth the expense.
