In this episode of Aging Starts Now, Elder Care Coordinator Erin Keogh-Rankin sits down with Occupational Therapist Beth Bedore to discuss one of the most important — and often overlooked — aspects of dementia care: the home environment. For individuals living with dementia, the home can either support safety, independence, and comfort… or unintentionally create confusion and risk. Beth shares practical, actionable guidance for families looking to make their loved one’s home more dementia-friendly without feeling overwhelmed. Together, Erin and Beth discuss: - Simple home modifications that improve safety - How lighting, decluttering, and routine reduce confusion - Common dementia-related safety risks like wandering and falls - Technology tools for monitoring, reminders, and medication management - When families should consider outside help or larger home changes - The balance between safety, dignity, and independence Whether you’re caring for a loved one at home or planning ahead, this episode offers compassionate insight and realistic steps families can take right now. Because sometimes, small changes can make a profound difference.
