Is your home safe and adapted to your condition? Our needs change over time. Sometimes, we just need to make a few changes to simplify our lives and enable us to continue living independently at home.
Here are a few examples of modifications that can help you avoid problems or injuries at home:
- Install handrails on stairs, in corridors and near outdoor steps.
- Install grab bars in the bathroom.
- Install motion detectors to turn on outside lights automatically.
- Install lever handles on doors.
- Install single-lever taps.
- Install a hand-held shower head and a shower seat.
- Install connected locks at entrances.
- Install non-slip flooring in the bathroom.
- Change the height of electrical sockets and light switches.
- Create space for seated work at the kitchen counter.
- Install a stair lift.
- Install solar lights along walkways.
