AGING IN PLACE KITCHEN DESIGN

The kitchen is often referred to as the heart of the home, and that shouldn’t change if you decide to age in place.  At Stay At Homesm, our expert designers know how to create a beautiful, functional kitchen that will meet all of your needs.  With a focus on safety and accessibility, your kitchen will contribute to your independence when you stay at home.

  • Reduced counter heights and open under-counter space improve functionality for clients in wheelchairs
  • Electrical switches can be moved to the front of the cabinets for improved access
  • Wall ovens require less bending and lifting when installed at counter height, also facilitate improved visibility
  • Anti-scald faucets with single-lever operation are simple and safe to use
  • Counter height or under-counter microwave and drawer-style dishwashers improve accessibility
