Virtual Aging-in-Place Assessments

Live far from a parent or loved one? Opt2Restore provides virtual home assessments by secure video, so families anywhere in the United States receive clear, rehab-led guidance without needing to be in the home.

How It Works

  1. Schedule a free consultation to discuss your loved one’s needs and the home.

  2. Guided video walkthrough of the home with a family member or caregiver, led room by room.

  3. Receive a written, prioritized plan within five business days, with practical recommendations you can act on.

Ideal For

Adult children living out of state, families planning ahead, homes outside our in-person service area, and builders or architects seeking design and plan reviews.

Virtual assessments are consulting services focused on the home environment and do not include physical therapy evaluation or treatment.
