Families across New Hampshire—from Manchester and Nashua to Concord and Dover—turn to our network for aging-in-place guidance. Whether you’re retrofitting a home in Rochester or arranging care in Portsmouth or Keene, we help New Hampshire seniors live safely in the homes they love.
New Hampshire offers strong healthcare systems and beautiful scenery, but aging in place requires careful planning due to seasonal risks and rural access challenges.
Key considerations include:
Cold winters and icy conditions that increase fall risks
Rural isolation in northern and western areas requiring early planning for services
Older homes with steep stairs and narrow layouts needing accessibility updates
Limited transportation options outside major towns
Here are some of our most helpful checklists for those who want to age in place confidently:
Bathroom Safety Checklist
Upgrade bathrooms with grab bars, non-slip floors, and better lighting — essential for New Hampshire’s icy winters and older housing.
Fall Prevention Checklist
Fix hazards on steep stairs, narrow hallways, and older entryways common in historic New Hampshire homes.
Emergency Preparedness Checklist
Prepare for blizzards, ice storms, and power outages — critical for New Hampshire’s snowy seasons.
Decluttering & Downsizing Checklist
Clear cluttered basements, attics, and porches often found in traditional New England homes.
In-Home Care Checklist
Plan for reliable caregiving whether you’re in Manchester, Concord, or rural northern New Hampshire.
