Is It Time For a Senior Move? Self-Check
Ten gentle statements — an honest read on timing
NASMM Certified · BBB A+ Rated · 30+ Years Experience
Read each statement and check the ones that sound familiar. There are no right answers and nothing is scored against you. This sheet is a conversation starter, not a test.
Around the house
- Mail, bills, or paperwork are piling up unopened.
- There are rooms no one goes into anymore.
- The stairs, the tub, or the basement steps have become something we worry about.
- A closet, a garage, or a basement has not been opened in years — and starting feels overwhelming.
Health & safety
- There has been a fall, a near-miss, or a scare in the last year.
- Meals have gotten simpler or get skipped, and the fridge is mostly condiments.
- Medications get missed, doubled, or are hard to keep straight.
- Driving has become a question mark.
The bigger picture
- Someone else now does the yard, the laundry, or the shopping.
- One family member is quietly holding all of it together.
How to read your answers
- 0 – 2 checked: Calm for now. Revisit this sheet in six months and keep an eye on bathrooms and staircases.
- 3 – 4 checked: Worth watching. Fix the inexpensive safety items now and start looking at options without deciding anything.
- 5 – 6 checked: Time to start planning. Put a date on the calendar to sit down and talk through options — a few months of runway makes the move calmer and cheaper.
- 7 – 10 checked: Have the conversation now. Waiting past this point usually ends in a fall, a hospital stay, and a move made in one week instead of two months.
This self-check is an awareness tool only. It is not a medical or financial assessment.
