Recently, Frank Wasilewski, CEO of Access Elevator, joined John Williams on WGN Radio 720 to talk about one of the most important topics for families today: helping older adults stay safe, independent, and comfortable in their own homes.
Aging in Place: Why It Matters
As we age, many of us want to remain in the homes we love. However, everyday tasks can become more challenging, and simple hazards like staircases, thresholds, or poor lighting can pose serious risks. Frank explained that helping people age in place isn’t just about convenience—it’s about healthier, happier, and longer lives.
How Access Helps Families Stay Safe
During the interview, Frank highlighted the variety of solutions Access provides to make homes safer and more accessible:
-
Stair Lifts & Ramps: Reduce trip hazards on stairs and provide safe, reliable mobility throughout the home.
-
Construction Modifications: From bathroom updates to handrails, door widening, and removing thresholds, these changes help prevent falls.
-
Lighting Upgrades: Proper lighting is often overlooked but is crucial as we age. More lumens can help older adults see small hazards like curled rugs or steps, significantly reducing the risk of accidents.
Why Stair Lifts Are Always a Big Deal
Stair lifts continue to be one of the most requested solutions. Not only do they make staircases safe, but Access also offers a Best Price Guarantee in Illinois, ensuring families get the best value without compromising safety.
