Chicago Aging in Place Solutions for Safer Senior Living

Our Chicago assessment team operates year-round, including during the harsh winter months when fall risks increase dramatically on icy walkways and snowy steps. We reach **North Side** neighborhoods via the **CTA Red Line** corridor and **Lake Shore Drive**, while the **I-90/94 Kennedy Expressway** connects us to **O'Hare** area communities and **Schaumburg**. For families in **Naperville**, **Oak Park**, and western suburbs, we travel via the **I-290 Eisenhower Expressway** and **I-88**. Our **South Side** and **Evanston** assessments are scheduled to avoid peak expressway congestion, ensuring punctual arrival times for every consultation.

Chicago's housing stock presents unique aging-in-place challenges. The classic **multi-level brownstones** and **greystones** found across **Lincoln Park**, **Lakeview**, and **Hyde Park** feature narrow, steep staircases that are especially dangerous for seniors, making stair lifts an essential modification. The **Chicago bungalow**, found throughout the **South Side** and **West Side**, offers a more accessible single-story layout but often has small bathrooms that need walk-in tub conversions. In suburban areas like **Naperville** and **Schaumburg**, two-story colonial homes benefit from main-floor bedroom conversions and first-floor bathroom additions. Our team understands city permit requirements, historic district regulations, and suburban HOA guidelines.
