In Home Care on North Padre Island

Age in Place with These Home Upgrades

Does your loved one wish to age in place? While this option offers more comfort and independence for seniors, they may still need assistance and companionship. Keep reading below to learn about our in home care in North Padre Island. Visiting Angels^® Corpus Christi & the Coastal Bend offers custom care solutions for seniors in our community.

Although staying at home sounds like a safe option for your loved one, falls often occur in and around the home. This can be avoided by making your loved one's home senior-friendly.

Here are three simple upgrades that can be made to their home:

• Use non-slip mats. In areas such as the bathroom and entryways, non-slip mats can add an extra layer of safety. They can prevent falls in areas that are high-traffic or slippery.
• Install bathroom grab bars. The bathroom can be very unsafe and slippery, leading to falls. Installing grab bars by the toilet and shower or tub can help your loved one stay stable.
• Increase lighting. More lighting will make your loved one's home easier to navigate. You can even set lamps on timers to provide extra lighting when it is needed most.
