Start With the Person’s Daily Needs
Describe difficult daily tasks and locations rather than asking the page to diagnose disability or prescribe medical equipment.
Bathroom Safety and Support
Use Bathroom Safety Installation, Grab Bar Installation and toilet-safety pages for selected products.
Entries, Steps, Ramps and Doorways
Handrails, prefab steps, ramps and doorway widening each have separate structural/compliance boundaries.
Thresholds, Flooring and Trip Hazards
Interior threshold lowering and flooring pages can address selected physical transitions without guaranteeing fall prevention.
Reachable Storage, Hardware and Lighting
Shelf/rod lowering, door hardware and product placement can be practical modifications; electrical lighting changes remain licensed scope.
When OT, Design Professional or Licensed Contractor Assessment Is Appropriate
Clinical needs, accessibility compliance, structural ramp/door/stair design and full remodels should involve qualified professionals. Use Contact with goals and photos for routing, not medical/accessibility certification.
Before an Aging-in-Place Project Is Routed
List the specific daily tasks that are difficult and the exact locations—tub entry, toilet transfer, stairs, thresholds, doorways or storage reach. Include photos and any products already selected. If an occupational therapist, medical provider or design professional has provided recommendations, share only the relevant installation requirements. NY-GoodHome can route physical project scopes but does not replace clinical assessment or certify accessibility compliance.
