Must-have home modifications to kickstart your age in place plan

Fantastic! You’ve decided to Age in Place. Now, it’s time to get your home into shape with some home modifications.
Earlier this month, the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety revealed that 80 per cent of Australian seniors aged over 70 “have a strong preference to stay living in their own home should they ever need support". With this in mind, it’s no surprise why many Australian seniors have decided to Age in Place.
For people aged over 65, falls are the leading cause of hospitalised injury in Australia, with these figures only rising. In fact, tripping on household objects, including steps and stairs is the second largest proportion of these cases.
Residential aged care isn’t the only option. In light of these recent events, Ageing in Place has presented itself as a safer and more cost-effective aged care solution for seniors to live out their retirement and still get the care they require.
