Your free starting point
Home Readiness Quick Check
Walk through the spaces you use most. For each prompt, mark Ready, Needs attention, or Not sure on a piece of paper. Then choose one next step.
1. Moving through your home
Are your usual routes clear of loose objects and cords? Where does clutter regularly build up?
2. Light where you need it
Can you see clearly along the routes you use after dark? Are switches or lights easy to reach?
3. Everyday essentials
Are frequently used items stored in convenient places? Which tasks involve awkward reaching or unnecessary trips?
4. Staying connected
Is your phone available when you need it? Can you easily find a trusted person’s contact details?
5. A change in routine
If your routine were interrupted, which task would be hardest? Who or what resource could help?
