Getting older is part of life, but many folks don’t think of that when they purchase a home with multiple floors! Seniors who have staircases as part of their houses may prefer to remain in their homes as they age, which is an understandable impulse. However, many seniors also experience mobility issues as they get older, making it more difficult or impossible for them to ascend a staircase and get to several important rooms in the home, like the bedroom.
