Manitoba Government Launches $1.5-million Safe and Healthy Home for Seniors Program. Who’s eligible?
Introduction
The Manitoba government has recently unveiled an exciting new initiative aimed at supporting seniors to age comfortably and safely within their homes. The Safe and Healthy Home for Seniors Program is designed to provide financial assistance for home accessibility and safety upgrades. Let’s dive into the details to see how eligible seniors can benefit from this program.
Program Overview
Eligible seniors aged 65 and older, along with family members caring for seniors, can now apply for grants of up to $5,000 ($6,500 for rural and remote areas) under this program. The grants are intended to cover essential home adaptations that enhance daily living and promote safety. Seniors can apply for funding every three years, with a maximum lifetime amount of $15,000.
Supported Home Adaptations
The program covers a range of home modifications that contribute to safety and accessibility. Examples include grab bars, walk-in tubs, bathtub safety rails, increased lighting for better visibility, zero-threshold showers, and widened doorways. These adaptations are crucial for preventing injuries and supporting independent living.
