Aging-in-Place Remodeling: Avoiding the “Nursing Home” Look

While it’s crucial to incorporate necessary safety features in your home, who said they must make your space resemble a clinical nursing home? If you’ve been contemplating how to maintain your independence while avoiding that uninviting “nursing home” aesthetic, you’ve come to the right place.

As a leading choice when searching “contractor near me” online, DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Omaha explores the concept of “independence by design” to help you adapt and transform your home to suit your needs while retaining your style.

Understanding the “Nursing Home” Look

What comes to mind when thinking of a “nursing home” look? You’ll probably envision sterile environments, bland color palettes, and purely functional spaces. While these settings may prioritize safety and accessibility, they often lack warmth and personal touch, which is precisely why this look might not appeal to you.

Independence by Design

Here’s the good news: you can maintain independence without sacrificing your style! Accessible remodeling is a design approach that melds safety, functionality, and aesthetics. Imagine wide doorways, slip-resistant flooring, and convenient cabinet heights seamlessly integrated into your existing décor. You keep your independence and a home that feels like your home.

Finding the Right Contractor

Now, bringing this vision to life requires partnering with the right professionals. You’ll want to find a reliable contractor who understands your needs and respects your vision.
