Problem: Recliner couch too low for client causing sit to stand transition to be difficult.
Solution: Adding a simple home modification like custom couch risers and a custom recliner lift can help a client maintain leg strength, energy and effort when performing the sit to stand transition.

 

 

Problem: Client reports, "I don't want to risk a fall when going to get my mail in the morning and I also don't want my mother-in-law to suffer a fall because my outside steps are too steep."
Solution: Adding a custom welded steel handrail to outside steps.

 

 

A realistic cost effective solution to making your bathroom safe and prepared to last a lifetime. Adding grab bars and adaptive equipment can provide a safe, long lasting solution for preventing injury or even death.

 

 

Getting rid of clutter can also be a realistic cost effective solution to preventing falls and injury in the home.

 

 

Problem: Clutter at doorway and a tattered threshold are both a fall risk. The partial closed doors do not allow full accessibility to the next room.
Solution: Fix the threshold line, remove clutter and open both doors to allow greater accessibility.

 

 

Adding a handrail to just one step lessens the chance of fall, injury or death on the outside of a home no matter what season of life a client is experiencing.

 

 

Problem: Client was mobile not using walker, however due to illness and previous fall, client was now a fall risk and his home was at risk for falls, especially with a sunken den without handrails.
Solution: Decorative grab bars added at every doorway in sunken den to provide stability in transitioning up step from den.

 

 

A super-pole is an alternative when dealing with glass showers and still wanting to make them safe upon entering and exiting.

Adding Grab Bars for safety can be added with a touch of design in order for you to make your home last a lifetime.

 

 

Adding grab bars at entrances and exits is a cost effective solution to decreasing fall risks in the home by allowing stability when stepping over threshold step.
