10-minute safety conversation

Before choosing products, name the exact problem.

Use these prompts with the person at home and any trusted contact who is allowed to help. The aim is not to solve everything in one sitting; it is to agree the first room, daily path or routine to review.

Start the guided review
01

What changed in daily movement?

A fall, hospital stay, new medication, night wandering, pain, fatigue or a room that is suddenly harder to use.

02

Where does worry appear?

Name the exact moment: showering, toilet transfers, stairs, getting out of bed, cooking or reaching the entrance.

03

What must stay familiar?

Name the routines, rooms and details that should stay familiar wherever safety allows.

04

What decision is needed this week?

Choose one action: clear a route, download the checklist, send photos, book a visit or compare home support options.

Choose the closest situation

Choose by the decision you need to make.

Most people arrive with one practical question. Start there, then use the guide, checklist or tool that makes the next step clearer.

The bathroom is the main worry

Focus on bathing, toilet transfers, floor grip, lighting, water controls and access.

I want to understand grants or funding

Prepare the documents, eligibility questions and adaptation notes before relying on any programme.

We are unsure if staying home is still realistic

Compare what home adaptations can solve with the point where more daily support or residential care should be considered.

Decision guides

Compare your options before you commit.

Short guides for the moments when you are choosing between observing, reviewing, adapting, preparing grant paperwork or waiting.

A clear first 20 minutes

Three checks worth doing today.

These are observations, not building work. If anything feels unstable or unsafe, stop using it and arrange an appropriate review.

  1. 1

    Check the night walk

    Check the route from bed to bathroom in low light. Note shadows, thresholds, cables and what the person reaches for.

  2. 2

    Clear one daily route

    Remove loose rugs, pet items and low furniture from the route used most between the main rooms.

  3. 3

    Put help within reach

    Confirm a charged phone or call device can be reached from the bed and bathroom, and agree who responds.

Spain-specific help

Turn general advice into checks that fit homes in Spain.

CasaMia resources are designed for the questions people face in Spain: local homes, regional grant criteria, measurements, installers and application documents.

01

Start with the real home

Apartment, villa, old building, stairs, narrow bathrooms and rented homes can all change what should be checked first.

02

Check what needs evidence

Photos, room notes, ownership status and mobility context help turn a worry into a plan you can review.

03

Prepare grant support early

Regional support depends on timing, documents and official criteria, so organise the file before installation is booked.

04

Move into one clear plan

When you are ready, CasaMia connects assessment, clear pricing, products, installation and follow-up.

When people usually need help

Checks for moments that create pressure.

Use these quick checks when something has changed at home, after hospital, or when people disagree about what to do next.

After a fall, surgery or hospital stayPrioritise entry, bathroom, bed access and the first week back home.When people disagree on what to fixUse a shared checklist and a risk-first plan so the discussion is based on the home, not scattered opinions.When the home still feels fine — but harderLook for small signals: night trips, bending, stairs, wet floors and reaching for furniture.

Guidance by situation

Find the closest situation first.

Guides are grouped by the decision you are trying to make. Choose the closest situation and go straight to the relevant advice.

Guides are currently available in English.

Common questions

Quick answers before you choose a resource.

Which resource should I start with?

If you need a broad first pass, start with the printable checklist. If one area feels urgent, use the room guide or online safety review first.

Can I use these resources before booking CasaMia?

Yes. Use the checklist, guides and tools to prepare notes before deciding whether a professional visit is needed.

When should we arrange a home visit?

A visit is useful when measurements, installation details, mobility needs or several rooms need to be reviewed before final pricing.

Can CasaMia help with grants and documents?

CasaMia organises the grant document checklist, safety wording and quotation information. Public authorities make the final grant decision.

Need a plan for a real home?

Turn the checklist into a prioritised home plan.

CasaMia reviews the home, separates urgent changes from future improvements and gives you a clear next-step plan to discuss.
