As a gerontologist and expert in universal design and in creating a safe environment through home modifications, we offer personalized services to adults who balance work, life and family, often coupled with responsibility for aging parents - while they often ignore preparing for their own aging process. We emphasize education and information, counseling clients on options to age-in-place safely, relocate to a Residential Community, and buying their next home.
