As mobility decreases, the bedroom becomes even more important. More than a sanctuary of sleep, the aging-in-place bedroom can become a multifunctional living space where you can read, relax, surf the internet, and watch favorite TV shows. This is true if staying in your own home, but doubly true if you move in with other family members.
The aging-in-place bedroom is all about maintaining independence, balanced by safety, comfort, and a forward-thinking design that allows for future modifications. Ideally, it should be situated on the first floor and have an en suite bathroom for late-night visits. The alternative is to install a chairlift or elevator. For every problem, there’s a solution.
