At North Point Home Care, we believe that every senior deserves the opportunity to age in place with dignity, safety, and support.

From detailed home safety assessments to compassionate day-to-day care, we’re here to ensure each home remains a secure and welcoming space.
Falls are one of the most common threats to senior safety, with nearly 1 in 4 older adults experiencing a fall each year, according to the CDC. Our trained home caregivers conduct comprehensive safety evaluations focused on preventing these incidents. We check for common hazards—like unsecured rugs, poor lighting, or cluttered pathways—and recommend simple but effective adjustments. These may include installing non-slip mats, clearing walkways, or enhancing illumination throughout the home.
As mobility challenges arise, making a home more accessible becomes essential. Our home caregiver team offers personalized recommendations to help seniors move safely and confidently within their environment. Suggestions often include grab bar installation, ramp placement, or reconfiguring furniture for better flow. Every recommendation is made with care and attention to the unique needs of the individual and their home.
Safety planning extends beyond everyday hazards. As part of our services, we also review emergency preparedness. We ensure smoke detectors are functional, exits are clearly marked, and families have a documented emergency plan. These steps, often overlooked, provide peace of mind and practical readiness for the unexpected.
