Home Safety Assessment
At Neuromov, we understand that the ability to live safely and confidently at home is essential to long-term independence and quality of life. As daily routines change with age or health conditions, the home environment must evolve as well. Our Certified Aging-in-Place Therapist (CAPS) provides expert, personalized Home Safety Assessments designed to help individuals remain in their homes comfortably, safely, and with dignity.
With specialized training in aging, accessibility, and home modification, our CAPS-certified therapist identifies environmental risks, recommends thoughtful adaptations, and empowers clients and families with solutions that support independence today—and in the years to come.
What a CAPS Home Safety Assessment Includes
During the assessment, our therapist conducts a thorough, room-by-room evaluation focused on safety, functionality, and long-term accessibility. This includes:
From the moment a client enters our care, we begin with a comprehensive neurological evaluation, identifying strengths, challenges, and meaningful goals. This foundation allows us to create a personalized therapy plan tailored to each person’s unique recovery needs—whether they are relearning daily tasks, rebuilding motor skills, improving cognitive function, or strengthening communication and safety awareness. Our stroke rehab services include:
