Saint Louis, MO, May 16, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Aging In Place is a concept becoming more commonplace for homeowners and craftspeople alike. Most people don’t want to leave their homes and communities as they age. When home becomes a barrier to safety, however, there are options to consider. Baby boomers turning 65 in large numbers are finding themselves contemplating and exploring these options now, and finding a company they can trust to help modify their home is challenging.

The Accessible Home Improvement of America’s program of Environmental Access Consultant certification now identifies companies that are experts in modifying and safeguarding homes.

This certification gives clients and healthcare professionals the assurance that Handyman Matters – St. Louis is eminently qualified to assess the home and develop a plan that provides the safety and independence needed for seniors to age in their homes.

The Certified Environment Access Consultant (C.E.A.C.) credential is recognized by healthcare professionals, professional organizations, and consumers who seek qualified specialists in accessible home modifications and independent living solutions. C.E.A.C. specialists can assist with design specifications; building, remodeling, and code compliance consulting; ADL assessments; and aging-in-place needs. The C.E.A.C. certification is a symbol of competence and trust that separates the environmental access and accessible home modifications industry from para-professional trades (or the everyday trades available for home repairs).
