Getting the Space Ready 

Getting the Space Ready 

• Create a welcoming bedroom with comfortable, age-appropriate furnishings. 

• Ensure safety and accessibility (e.g., clear pathways, grab bars if needed). 

• Respect privacy: Provide storage space, a key (if appropriate), and signage if desired. 

Establishing Routines 

• Introduce house routines gradually, allowing time to adjust. 

• Involve the person in planning their schedule. 

• Be flexible and responsive to energy levels, preferences, and needs. 

Communication with Family & Supporters 

• Ask how and how often they’d like updates. 

• Maintain regular contact through phone calls, emails, or visits. 

• Include them in planning and celebration of milestones when appropriate.
