Course Description:

There is a HUGE need for rehab professionals like you to support in Aging in Place.

Homes were not built to support mobility impairments and your clients are struggling to find the support they need to stay at home.

Less than 1% of today’s homes are wheelchair accessible. A meager 5% can accommodate someone with a moderate mobility impairment. Many “retirement” homes aren’t even set up to be accessible. Many families turn to contractors for expensive remodels only to learn later down the road that the modifications didn’t fulfil all of the client needs.

Whether dealing with an elderly patient or someone who just had surgery and has restricted weightbearing, all clinicians need some baseline info on recommendations for improved independence and safety at home. You hold the key to matching specific client abilities and values with environmental challenges – and creating a long-term solution for sustained independence.
