Did you know...
Falls are the number one cause of serious injuries that lead to weakness and loss of independence.
But the good news is—they’re preventable.
Falls can change everything for
Kansas City Seniors,
but they don't have to
Falls can mean serious injuries, hospital stays, and losing the independence you value. In Kansas City, 1 in 3 adults over 65 falls each year, often leaving families burdened with caregiving responsibilities, physical injuries, and emotional stress.
Aging at home is your goal, and we’re here to help you achieve it safely.
Are you at risk?
• Have you fallen this year?
• Do you feel unsteady while walking?
• Are you using a walking aid?
• Do you often rush to the bathroom?
• Do you take medications that make you feel dizzy?
Book your free consultation and let us support your goal of staying safe and independent at home.
Aging at home can be challenging
At Limitless Living Solutions, we understand the challenges seniors face while aging at home.
Most people prefer to continue living in their homes as they age. However, without making changes to the home, over time it may become harder to do daily activities such as cooking, bathing, or managing steps. Fortunately, there are simple and affordable ways to change your home to make it work for you.
This is known as Home Modification, making changes to a home to match your changing needs, in order to:
• Reduce accidents by making the home a safer place to live daily life and age in place
• Support independent living by making daily activities easier
Aging in place requires careful planning, including decisions about changes to the home environment, additional help in the home and keeping the skills that allow you to stay active with safety, mobility and daily activities in mind.
Maybe you've found yourself
-
Finding it hard to get up from a chair or climbing a step.
-
Feeling unsteady or dizzy, making you fear falling.
-
Experiencing new challenges with daily tasks like dressing, showering or cooking.
-
Worrying about a family member's safety at home.
-
Having difficulty keeping your spouse and parent safe at home due to the challenges of progressing dementia.
You are not alone.
The majority of older adults have similar concerns and have done nothing to prepare their homes for safe aging in place.
We are here to help. We are dedicated to providing compassionate care and real solutions to seniors and their families in Kansas City, Missouri and surrounding areas.
Here's How We Help
1
make your home safe
After a thorough home safety assessment, we will offer customized recommendations of equipment and home modifications to reduce fall risk and increase ease of activities. We focus on low-cost, low-barrier, high impact solutions, and help you find resources for their installation.

Reduce your risk
You will receive an individualized, holistic assessment of your skills, risks and challenges. Together, we will come up with a plan for activities and exercises to reduce your risk of falling and improve your ability to remain independent for the long term.
