Elderly Home Safety Assessment Service
Lobo's professional team includes a Certified Senior Home Safety Specialist® who provides professional advice on improving seniors' home safety.
We can also provide on-site home safety assessment services to gain an in-depth understanding of the elderly’s living habits, health conditions, self-care abilities and other needs, and then provide a comprehensive home improvement plan based on the existing home environment.
The assessment includes:
Home Environment Safety Assessment
Comprehensively inspect the home environment to assess whether there are potential hazards that may cause injuries to the elderly, such as uneven floors, lack of handrails on stairs and in the bathroom. Combined with professional knowledge, targeted improvement project suggestions are provided to enhance home safety and comfort.
Assistive tool suggestions and guidance
Recommend appropriate assistive tools such as corridor and stair rails, bathroom handrails, and shower chairs based on the home environment and the needs of the elderly. Provide instructions on how to use assistive tools to teach the elderly and their caregivers how to properly use them.
Wall structure assessment
Check the location of metal, wires or water pipes in the wall and provide appropriate installation solutions to ensure the auxiliary equipment is installed smoothly without damaging the house structure.
