Move About Your Home Safely and with Confidence!

The Safe at Home program performs modifications and minor repairs in the house so homeowners can move about their home safely. Modifications include grab bars, raised toilet seat adapters, shower stools, handheld showers, stair railings, smoke, fire and carbon monoxide detectors. These modifications are performed year-round.

Call (510) 625-0316 ext 103 or email mail to: colin@rtoakland.org
if you or someone you know needs this service.

Call Before You Fall!

Minor modifications create safer home for you that result in fewer falls and increased physical independence. We know that you want to live in your home and how important it is to feel safe and confident when you move around your home.

Falls are the leading cause of death from injuries among older persons.

Please call today!
