The relationship will expand the nonprofit's mission to install grab bars in the homes of seniors in need to help them prevent falls as they age in placeSAN ANTONIO, July 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Close the Gap in Senior Care , the non-profit arm of Caring Senior Service , announced today that it is partnering with TruBlue Home Service Ally , a handyman and home services franchise organization that provides affordable, worry-free living for busy adults and seniors, to distribute and install grab bars as part of its Grab the Bars initiative.Close the Gap in Senior Care president and Caring Senior Service founder and CEO Jeff Salter said this partnership will allow the nonprofit to strengthen its initiative to help seniors and people with disabilities install much-needed grab bars in their homes."One of the biggest gaps in senior care is fall prevention," Salter said. "Every 11 seconds, a senior is treated in the emergency room for a fall, and this can cost about $30,000 on average to treat. TruBlue Home Service Ally sees the value in our mission and has decided to work with our team to install grab bars in the homes of more seniors who are aging in place."In addition to regular handyman services, TruBlue provides a variety of services for seniors who want to remain at home as they grow older. In addition to grab bar installations, the company provides other safety and ease of us modifications to your home including switch and outlet access modifications, zero-entrance tub and shower installations, wheelchair ramps, and doorway improvements for the senior population.TruBlue's partnership with Close the Gap in Senior Care allows Caring Senior Service's franchise owners, caregivers, suppliers, and referral partners to identify and nominate seniors with low or fixed incomes to receive a complete installation of up to two grab bars in their bathroom. Close the Gap will review incoming nominations and send the approved nominations to TruBlue to schedule the installation.In 2021, Caring Senior Service established Close the Gap in Senior Car to raise awareness of the gaps in at-home senior care. Salter kicked off the establishment of the nonprofit with a 9,400-mile bike ride throughout 30 states as he visited 39 Caring Senior Service locations
“TruBlue can identify the issues or necessary improvements that we don’t have the expertise to see. TruBlue can be our eyes for making sure the home is ready and in the best shape possible,” said Bongiovanni. .
While the company does do modifications for aging in place, its main focus is subscriptions for routine services like maintenance, yard work, small repairs and other projects.This fall, TruBlue announced a strategic partnership with in-home care franchise Comfort Keepers to be their preferred provider of home modifications and handyman services.
