Home Safe Home Program

Our primary goal is to help you thrive in your home by providing comprehensive solutions tailored to your needs, ensuring your continued success and independence. This program is designed to reduce risks, prevent unnecessary pain and suffering, and enhance the overall quality of life for seniors in our community.

Our Home Safe Home Program is led by the Scottsdale Fire Department and works closely with our partners including local faith communities, healthcare providers, and senior industry professional and organizations.

Residents who use the program are up to 55% less likely to have unsafe occurrences and hospital visits. We also see much higher levels of independence and 22% higher levels of quality of life. All of these indicators lead to what we call longer adjusted quality of life years living in the community (live at home longer and happier)!

The consultation and assessment is FREE to all Scottsdale residents.

Any information from the visit is ONLY shared with YOU and anyone you would like it shared with.

One of our certified risk reduction specialists will schedule a convenient time to complete your WE CARE Assessment. Using advanced assessment software and the RightCare methodology, we identify key risks and practical solutions to help you live more safely and successfully. You'll receive a personalized report with prioritized recommendations, shared only with you and anyone you choose. If you'd like, we can also help you implement the solutions.

Please have whoever you would like to be there to understand the risk and help with collaboration and support. Having the people you want there will save additional time and help with planning and follow through.

The Program does not provide resources for paying bills or medications or medicaid programming. The program is designed to give industry leading solutions to help our seniors who are facing the challenges that come with aging.

The Home Safe Home program was developed by a diverse team of professionals, including firefighters and EMS personnel, researchers, first responders, clergy, clinicians, and senior care experts. This collaborative effort aims to assist local fire departments in reducing risks and enhancing the quality of life for seniors within their communities. The program builds upon over two decades of specialized research and leverages the extensive experience of fire departments across the United States. By integrating insights from various fields, our Home Safe Home program provides comprehensive solutions to address the complex challenges associated with senior safety and well-being. In addition to its research foundation, Home Safe Home offers certification in advanced risk reduction assessment and care planning for key community organizations. Certified entities have demonstrated a 400% greater effectiveness in risk reduction compared to non-certified counterparts, transforming communities into proactive environments that support successful aging at home.
