How Color Contrast Can Help In The Kitchen

Dealing with the challenges of low-vision can be FUN. It just depends on using the right color-contrast utensils that make it easy.  You can find colorful cutting boards, knives, measuring spoons, and other utensils at local stores, like Costco, Bed, Bath & Beyond, Target, Walmart, Ace Hardware,etc.   Here’s a link to cutting boards we found on-line and for a very reasonable price.  Look around.  Making necessary changes to the home doesn’t have to cost you an arm and a leg.

Household Guardians launched in late 2012, works mainly with the elderly and their families, focusing on the concerns of aging-in-place.  After an in-depth assessment of the house and any hazards that may be present, on-site solutions are provided using low-tech and high-tech product ideas to maximize the safety aspects within and outside the house. 

 Household Guardians wants our seniors to retain their independence and dignity and we want the next generation to take the steps to create safe home environments for themselves and worry less about the elders.
