Every year, millions of Americans are unexpectedly faced with the challenge of living with disabilities or reduced mobility. The CDC reports that approximately 61 million adults in the U.S. live with some type of disability, and a significant majority of older adults prefer to “age-in-place” — choosing to stay in their own homes rather than relocating to assisted living facilities. For many, modifying their homes to accommodate new or existing physical limitations is crucial for maintaining safety, comfort, and independence.
At Populus, we understand the importance of making your home a safe and accessible environment. Our goal is to assist individuals facing mobility challenges in staying in their homes, where they feel secure and connected. We specialize in home accessibility modifications that make daily life easier for individuals with disabilities or those preparing their homes for future needs.
We offer a variety of home modifications and installations to help you or your loved ones live comfortably and safely at home:
Chair lifts: Allow easy access to all levels of your home without the strain of stairs.
Ramps: Create wheelchair-friendly entryways and exits, providing safer, easier access.
Roll-in showers: Barrier-free showers for individuals with limited mobility, reducing the risk of slips and falls.
Grab bars: Strategically placed support bars in bathrooms, hallways, and staircases to improve stability.
Mechanical lifts: Ensure safe and smooth transitions from bed to wheelchair or bath for those needing mobility assistance.
Modified cabinets: Custom-designed cabinets and storage solutions for easier access.
Other assistive devices: We work closely with you to install equipment tailored to your specific needs.
The cost of long-term care, whether in a nursing home or through private in-home care, can be overwhelming. Typically, payment options are limited to:
Long-Term Care (LTC) insurance policies
Paying out-of-pocket
Spending down assets
Instead of facing these financial challenges, home modifications allow you to avoid the costly alternative of assisted living or long-term care facilities. Additionally, it protects your most valuable asset — your home. With our expert guidance, you can remain in the place you love without depleting your financial resources.
