The Role of Life Care Planner and Construction Materials in Universal designed homes

Accessibility Is Home podcast

Ever wondered the role of a Life Care Planner has to make a home truly accessible ? Join me, Angela Fox, as we unravel the complexities of real estate and accessible living with insights from my guests, Danielle Reed and Foncio Smith. They bring a unique blend of medical and building expertise to the table, sharing their personal and professional journey in transforming residential spaces into havens of comfort and independence for those with spinal cord injuries through their company: Accessible Suites in Georgia.
This episode weaves through the financial and emotional intricacies of customizing homes for unique needs, like the transformative power of aquatic therapy for a client with balance issues. Dive into a riveting conversation about the long-term cost benefits of such tailored home modifications, and how they can uplift not only the property value but also the very essence of quality living. We shine a light on the often-overlooked emotional significance of these changes, revealing why seeing beyond the price tag can redefine the independence and joy of individuals with disabilities.
Concluding with a critical gaze into the maze that is the insurance and healthcare system, we dissect the formidable barriers faced when securing necessary equipment and adaptations for accessible living. The dialogue expands to encompass the practical realities of home renovation from standing frames to stair lifts, and choosing contractors experienced in disability design. Our guests and I aim to empower you with the knowledge and advocacy tools needed to imagine a world where accessibility is woven into the fabric of every community. It is a perfect episode for national Tell Your Story Day.
