Important: The Planner creates an organizational planning order — not a clinical risk score or professional safety ranking. It does not prescribe structural work, determine code or ADA compliance, estimate project cost, or decide whether a home is safe. Urgent repair, medical, mobility, or structural concerns may require appropriate professional input.

About this Priority Planner

Caregiver Compass™ Home Modification Priority Planner is an educational and organizational tool. It is designed to help families sort home modification ideas into a manageable planning order. It is not a medical evaluation, clinical fall-risk assessment, occupational or physical therapy assessment, engineering or construction evaluation, accessibility certification, building-code review, project-cost estimate, or determination that a home is safe.

National Institute on Aging guidance recommends reviewing the home room by room, correcting obvious dangers such as loose railings and poor lighting first, and reevaluating as needs change. AARP’s HomeFit resources similarly encourage families to consider how the home fits current and future needs.
