"With Americans being more

reestablish those connections

A survey by the AARP found
more than two-thirds of older
Americans describe themselves
as very satisfied with their
current housing and community
circumstances. A sizable
majority of respondents own a
traditional single-family house,
have lived in their home for
many years, and plan to remain
there for the rest of their lives.
However, most homes are
designed for young adults and
don't have the features and
conveniences to make them
appropriate and safe for seniors.
A well adapted home will make
many day-to-day living tasks
both easier and safer - often
preventing the most common
kinds of accidents. Sometimes
installation of grab bars and
handrails can make all the
difference for an aging
homeowner.

other disabilities to consider.

of adaptations you should
consider in your home:
- Mobility into and throughout
your home
- Handholds and railings
- Easy-to-use handles and
controls
- Other safety issues
Mobility
As we get older, we will have
more difficulty getting around
and steps will become a
significant barrier. Even if we
never use a wheelchair, most of
us would like to be able to make
better use of grocery bag carts,
strollers, wheeled trash cans,
wheeled luggage and a variety
of other conveniences. All these
devices are stopped cold by
steps. Like wheelchairs, they
are also difficult to maneuver in
tight spaces once inside the
home.
One of the easiest ways to
make your home easier to live
in is to design it so that at least
one entrance to the main living
level can be accessed without
going up or down steps. In
many cases, this means rerout
ing or re-grading the front walk
