Welcome!
Aging in Place Efficiently partners with qualified older adults to help them remain in their homes for as long as possible. Improvements focus on three areas: comfort, lower energy bills, and home safety.
Home Improvements
The home improvements offered will depend on the needs of each homeowner. A licensed energy auditor, an occupational therapist, and a social worker will help determine the best options for your home within the available budget.
Examples of potential home improvements include:
- insulation in walls and attics
- weatherization
- appliance upgrades
- grab bars in bathrooms
- handrails and ramps
- improved lighting
