There are many choices for elder care as you or your loved one’s health begins to decline. From assisted living to nursing homes and senior housing, these can all be very costly options that can add up over the years. Extending the time that you or a loved one can safely stay in your own home can help to ensure that the funds saved up for retirement can last as long as possible.
Simple home modifications, from hand rails to wheelchair ramps and modified bathrooms, are ultimately a small price to pay to extend the time spent in your own home. These are also a tremendous cost savings over an alternative senior living arrangement.
Take the worry out of retirement by making your home a safe place as you or a loved one ages. Not only will these senior modifications make the home a safer environment, but it will also save money in the long run, by prolonging the need for alternative housing and care.
