What is Aging in Place?

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention defines aging in Place as: “the ability to live in one’s own home and community safely, independently, and comfortably, regardless of age, income, or ability level.”

We believe that Aging in Place is the ability to live in the environment of your choice by making adjustments to ensure success.

Why would I need aging in Place consulting?

Everybody is different regarding how they live and what they feel is important. 

Aging in Place consulting is a person-centered service that guides you in the decision-making process through the eyes of a clinician. 

 Occupational therapists know how you function in your most private spaces and will help you create a plan specific to your physical needs and those of your caregivers.

What type of clients does Evolving Homes work with?
  • The people who appreciate my services are the deliberate decision-makers who plan and want to know all their options before committing.
  • Adults who want to stay in their homes as they age have yet to decide where to start. 
  • Families need guidance and ideas on how to care for a loved one at home.
What does it take to get started?

Send us an email to info@evolvinghomes.com.

If it’s the right fit, we will invite you to schedule a virtual consultation where we will discuss solutions that match your budget, timeline, and preferences.  

The service is provided virtually to allow adult children living in other parts of the country to be part of the discussion.

At the end of the session, you will have a plan to solve the challenges and a To Do list that you can begin to implement immediately. 

What makes Evolving Homes different than a contractor?
  • What makes me different is that I look at the whole person when looking at Aging in Place solutions. 
  • We believe that living independently isn’t just about putting up grab bars — it’s also essential to have the physical strength to get up off the floor, have good lifestyle habits to stay out of the hospital and be able to get help when you need it. 
How do you work with contractors?
  • We work together with contractors, much like architects. We design the plan that the contractor executes.
  • Occupational Therapists are experts in daily function and disease progression.
  • We assess the client’s unique needs and create Aging in Place plans that maximize function and make it easier to live in their spaces.
  • Once the design is completed, we work with contractors to build it to those specifications.
