Elgin families refuse making helpful home modifications despite obvious safety and comfort needs, stubbornly maintaining environments designed for healthy people not terminally ill patients. They reject moving bedrooms downstairs when stairs become dangerous, resist rearranging furniture for wheelchair access, and decline removing tripping hazards because changing anything feels like admitting defeat. This rigid attachment to previous home layouts creates unnecessary risks and discomfort when simple modifications would dramatically improve quality of life. LifeChoice Hospice & Palliative Care helps Kane County residents recognize that adapting environments shows wisdom not weakness. Since 2012, we've supported thousands of stubborn households learning that practical modifications enable better care than maintaining pre-illness layouts serving nobody well.
