Lighting
Brightness, glare, and visibility in key spaces and along walkways.
Stairs
Handrails, step visibility, and safe movement between levels.
Bathrooms
Grab support, access to washing, and slip prevention in wet areas.
Furniture
Stability, seat height, and clear paths for moving around comfortably.
Home access
Entrances, thresholds, and getting in and out of the home safely.
Daily activities
Cooking, reaching, and everyday tasks done with ease and confidence.
Suitability over time
How well the home adapts as needs change with age.
