Afraid You'll Have to Leave the Comfort of Your Home as You Age?

What is a Home Assessment?

The goal of the assessment is to evaluate the functionality of the clients' current living arrangements and provide recommendations to improve safety and accessibility. It begins with a thorough Q&A between the client and Occupational Therapist (OT) to assess needs, wants and medical concerns. Then a walk-through of the home's exterior and interior evaluates the layout and physical abilities of the homeowner. Finally, a report is provided with detailed recommendations and further information to lead you in the right direction.
