Universal Design is the master design umbrella under which other design principles such as accessibility, adaptability, sustainability, and visitability allow for a wide of range choices in building and remodeling residential living environments. 

This variety of choices accommodates a multitude of needs and users from retirees, to traditional families, to newlyweds, to special needs, and beyond.

The UD Forum will address providing safe living environments for our retiring population that allows residents to remain in their homes safely and the ability to accommodate visits from their friends and families.

Examining the growth of new construction and remodeling, the changes in property values, and the diverse lifestyles trends of our community will expand everyone’s awareness. 

This will be of value to Realtors, Remodelers, Builders, Occupational and Physical Therapists, Organizations, and Industries serving the retirees and their families that want beautiful and “visitable” homelike environments.

During These Unsettling Times We Bring Health & Wellness Services to Your Home!

Cornerstone LifeCare Clients
Our clients come from all walks of life and, during these uncertain times, most wish to stay in the comfort and safety of their home. They may have several people involved in their care plan. Our Consultants can help take the burden off these supporters.

The Initial Meeting
A Cornerstone LifeCare Consultant will meet with the client and supporters to gather information on their health, living environment, general financial situation, and current medical providers. Evaluated items include physical capabilities such as mobility and ability to function in the home, living environment safety and accessibility, and overall personal requirements.

The Recommendations and Report
Following the initial meeting, the Cornerstone LifeCare Consultant will process the information. A report is then written with specific recommendations including immediate action steps, such as a medical examination or more in-depth Living Environment review.

Follow-up Process
Along with the written report the Consultant will discuss specific recommendations with the client and supporters. We have high quality, vetted service providers and resources (the majority serve in your home). Living Environment recommendations may include Aging in Place modifications or Personal Services such as home health, legal, financial, and medical needs. When appropriate, we will also assist with placement outside the home in a senior living community of choice .

Ongoing Relationship
Our Cornerstone LifeCare Consultants often establish an an ongoing relationship to help oversee and manage the coordination of future service needs.
