Home management services for aging and caregiving well at home.
Holland Living offers specialized home management services aimed at helping individuals age and care for others gracefully in the comfort and safety of their own space. Our services range from home assessments, modifications, repairs, and ongoing home maintenance to administrative organization and assistive technology.
As we age or care for others, our needs become more complex, requiring adaptation. While a person may feel self-sufficient and independent, aging and caregiving can present unforeseen challenges that might surprise them. They may also want or need to spend this time doing things other than home repairs and maintenance and managing all that goes into maintaining a secure and welcoming living environment.
Further, we understand that things can get complicated quickly, so staying organized is essential whether you manage your home and personal affairs on paper or digitally. We can help you create a system that supports you and the loved one you may be caring for.
Holland Living is a trusted partner that looks through the lens of being a Certified-Aging-in-Place specialist as you navigate the aging and caregiving journeys. The Certified Aging-in-Place designation is through a program created by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) in collaboration with Home Innovation Research Labs, the NAHB 50+ Housing Council, and the AARP.

Assistive Technology
Assistive technology can help many people in different ways, whether it be helping someone living with dementia remember certain things or setting up their devices in a way that is easy for them to stay connected to their loved ones or just a healthy older person who wants to use smart home technology to automate tasks and provide motion sensors that can detect movement and turn on lights to help prevent falls. We also use assistive tech for home safety and security –– smart smoke alarms and doorbells, automated lighting, and water-overflow devices to name a few.
Administrative Organization
Our administrative organization services are designed to assist individuals or primary caregivers who may act as a Power of Attorney (POA) who would find it supportive to create a system to help them stay organized (with paper or digitally). Whether you handle financial, legal, or healthcare matters on behalf of someone else or are primarily responsible for coordinating and overseeing their day-to-day needs, our services can provide you with the support and expertise you need to stay organized, effective, and efficient.
