Sample assessment report
A clear plan families can act on, share, and discuss.
This example shows the kind of organized guidance Peak Access is building around. It is not a real client report or a legal compliance certification.
Example residence
Residential Access Assessment
Prepared for a family comparing urgent safety fixes, future remodel options, and funding questions.
Primary concern
Recent fall risk during bathroom transfers
Resident profile
Uses a cane now; walker may be needed soon
Property type
Single-level home with porch entry
Decision goal
Know what to fix first without overspending
Priority sequence
Bathroom transfer risk
Shower entry, toilet support, and wet-floor movement should be addressed before lower-risk upgrades.
Entry threshold and porch step
Measure for a temporary ramp fit and review whether a permanent entry improvement is practical.
Night route and hallway lighting
Reduce trip points between bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen with lighting, flooring, and clear-path changes.
Room-by-room findings
Entry
- Two-step porch entry
- Raised threshold
- Limited landing space
Compare portable ramp, threshold ramp, and permanent entry options.
Bathroom
- Tub wall transfer
- No anchored grab bars
- Low toilet height
Prioritize grab bar placement, toilet support, and shower-entry solution.
Path of travel
- Dim hallway
- Loose rug edge
- Narrow turn near bedroom
Improve lighting, remove trip points, and verify walker clearance.
Action checklist
- Remove loose rugs and clear the nighttime path
- Measure entry, bathroom, hallway, and turning points
- Photograph constraints for landlord, HOA, or care-team review
- Price urgent bathroom support before larger remodeling decisions
- Prepare questions for VA, Medicaid waiver, nonprofit, or private-pay funding conversations
- Identify which contractor, vendor, or specialist should review the next step
