Aging in Place design refers to the practice of creating a living space that meets the unique needs of people as they age.
This design approach aims to enable older adults to live in their own homes safely, independently, and comfortably, regardless of age, income, or ability level.
The ultimate goal is to increase the quality of life for older adults, allowing them to maintain their independence for as long as possible.
The Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist (CAPS) certification program is administered by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) in collaboration with Lowes Home Improvement.
The program provides comprehensive, practical, market-specific knowledge about working with older and maturing adults to remodel their homes for aging-in-place.
The CAPS certification program educates professionals on the technical, business management, and customer service skills essential to competing in the fastest-growing segment of the residential remodeling industry: home modifications for aging-in-place.
Involvement in the program involves taking three courses:
- Marketing and Communication Strategies for Aging and Accessibility (CAPS I)
- Design Concepts Solutions for Livable Homes and Aging In Place (CAPS II)
- Details and Solutions for Livable Homes and Aging In Place
