Home modifications play an essential role in assisting patients that occupational therapists work with by creating environments that are safe, accessible, and conducive to independent living. For many occupational therapists, HandyPro stands out as the preferred home modification company due to our expertise and professional certifications, including Certified Aging-In-Place Advisors (CAPS), Certified Environmental Access Consultants (CEAC), Certified Senior Advisors, and Certified Home Assessment and Modification Professional (CHAMP). Since 1996, HandyPro has assisted over 50,000 customers, establishing a reputation for excellence in the field.
Here's how HandyPro's expertise and services can assist patients:
- Accessibility: HandyPro specializes in making spaces more accessible for individuals with mobility impairments. Our team can install ramps, widen doorways, and create barrier-free entrances, enabling patients to move around their homes safely and easily.
- Safety: Occupational therapists often collaborate with HandyPro to assess home environments and identify potential hazards. HandyPro's modifications, such as adding grab bars, installing non-slip flooring, and improving lighting, significantly reduce the risk of falls or accidents, enhancing safety for patients.
- Independence: By partnering with HandyPro, occupational therapists help patients maintain or regain independence in their daily activities. HandyPro's modifications, including adjusting countertop heights, installing kitchen aids, and rearranging furniture, empower individuals with disabilities to perform tasks independently.
- Adaptive Equipment: HandyPro offers a range of adaptive equipment tailored to the specific needs of patients. Whether it's stairlifts, shower chairs, or handrails, our expertise ensures that the right equipment is seamlessly integrated into the home environment, enhancing functionality and accessibility.
- Promoting Social Participation: Through HandyPro's modifications, occupational therapists promote social participation and community integration for patients. By creating accessible and functional home environments, individuals with disabilities feel more confident engaging in social activities and meaningful interactions within their communities.
Overall, HandyPro's expertise and commitment to excellence in home modifications complement the goals of occupational therapy, facilitating independence, safety, and improved quality of life for patients. With our extensive experience and professional certifications, HandyPro remains a trusted partner for occupational therapists seeking to optimize home environments for their patients' needs.
April is Occupational Therapy Month, and we want to thank our occupational therapist partners for choosing and recommending HandyPro for their patients’ home modifications.
