Kansas families—from Wichita to Overland Park and Kansas City to Topeka—count on our network for local aging-in-place solutions. Whether you’re modifying a home in Olathe or arranging services in Lawrence or Manhattan, we help seniors live safely and comfortably across the state.
Kansas’ affordability and slower pace are positives for seniors, but rural distance and seasonal extremes require careful planning.
Key considerations include:
Tornado and severe storm risks, requiring emergency preparation
Cold winters and hot summers, creating heating and cooling needs
Older rural homes needing accessibility updates
Long distances to healthcare services in rural counties
Here are some of our most helpful checklists for those who want to age in place confidently:
Bathroom Safety Checklist
Prevent falls by upgrading Kansas bathrooms with slip-resistant materials and sturdy grab bars — essential for seniors facing severe storm seasons.
Fall Prevention Checklist
Fix worn steps, uneven porches, and loose carpets commonly found in older Kansas homes.
Emergency Preparedness Checklist
Be ready for tornadoes, severe thunderstorms, and flash flooding — common threats in Kansas.
