You would prefer to continue living in your home as you age.
However, without making changes to your home, over time it may become harder to do daily activities such as cooking, bathing, or managing steps.

THE SKY IS THE LIMIT
Get to Know Me
and My Philosophy
My passion is helping individuals stay in their homes! Over the years I have seen the strain on families when an illness, surgery or disease makes returning home difficult or impossible. These experiences and passions have lead me to develop an innovative, holistic approach to rehabilitation which includes all aspects of the person and their environment. Through teaching you new skills, making simple changes to your home for the better, and renewing your motivation to do the things you love to do, I want to make your dream of aging in place a reality!

We Help KC Seniors Live Safely at Home
ABOUT ME
KRISTEN LIENHOP,
MSOT, OTR/L, SHSS
Occupational Therapist,
licensed in MO & KS
Senior Home Safety Specialist​
in Kansas City
I have served the Kansas City Northland community as an Occupational Therapist for 27 years, both in hospitals and home care. This experience as well as my certification as a Senior Home Safety Specialist make me uniquely positioned as the expert in Kansas City for home safety assessments. I have expertise in home modification, adaptive equipment, and technology recommendations for seniors and adults, as well as families with children with disabilities. I am able to offer customized OT assessments and follow-up visits to establish targeted home programs for diagnosis specific deficits, age-related weakness and balance impairment, low vision modification, cognitive assessment and dementia related caregiver education, and/or home modification for families of children with disabilities.
Throughout my career I've seen people face unexpected challenges affecting their ability to live safely at home. Whether due to a sudden accident, like a fracture from falling, a worsening chronic health issue like Parkinson's Disease, or the effects of slowing down with age, many people are searching for solutions to remain safely in the their homes. Unfortunately, the current health care system often doesn't leave individuals or their caregivers equipped to thrive once they return home. Nor does it often promote, or pay for, services to address risks and prevent incidents at home before injury occurs, as preventative home safety measures are not considered "medically necessary." I am passionate about providing skilled assessments in order to create safe homes for all seniors in the KC area, and offer both Medicare and private pay options.
