How it works

A simple request, then a clinical plan inside your home

HomeStretch keeps the website step simple: call or email for the free home safety screen. Intake, physician sign-off, and the in-home evaluation come after the first conversation.

Step 1

Request your free screen

Start by phone or email. HomeStretch asks what has changed at home, who is involved in the decision, and whether the concern is safety, movement, confidence, or all three.

Step 2

Intake and MD sign-off

Before training begins, HomeStretch coordinates physician sign-off. That step keeps the existing care team involved and gives the plan a clinical safety check.

Step 3

In-home evaluation

The first paid visit reviews the home, daily routines, mobility, cognition, vision, medication considerations, bathroom access, stairs, lighting, and the places where confidence has changed.

Step 4

Follow-up support

The Full Service Plan includes three follow-up visits for strength, balance, fall-recovery technique, functional practice, and equipment education after modifications are in motion.

Built around the real home

The plan starts with the space where confidence has changed

HomeStretch uses the first conversation to understand stairs, bathrooms, lighting, daily routines, caregiver concerns, and the practical changes that can help an older adult stay steady at home.

What to expect

The next step stays clear without turning the website into intake

First conversation

The site starts a simple request. HomeStretch follows up directly to understand what changed at home and who is helping make decisions.

Clinical guardrails

Before training begins, physician sign-off keeps the current care team involved and gives the plan a safety check.

Written next steps

HomeStretch explains the service fit, the home visit plan, and the practical follow-up steps before anyone commits to paid work.

Keep the first request simple. Phone and email are the reliable starting points, and HomeStretch will explain the next step directly.

Questions families ask

The process should feel clear before anyone commits

Does my doctor have to be involved?

Yes, for a plan that includes training. HomeStretch requests physician sign-off before training starts so your current care team stays in the loop.

How long is the first paid visit?

The first paid visit is a comprehensive evaluation of the living space, functional performance, vision and cognition screens, and written recommendations. HomeStretch confirms expected visit timing during intake.

What if the free screen shows I only need one focused change?

HomeStretch can help you choose between the $349 Home Safety Evaluation and the $1249 Full Service Plan. The goal is the right level of support, not the largest package by default.

What happens after I ask for the free screen?

HomeStretch follows up directly, confirms whether the concern is a fit for the free screen, and explains the appropriate next step before any paid visit is scheduled.

Ready to ask what the first step should be

Call or email HomeStretch. The screen starts the conversation before any paid visit is scheduled.
