I love that you addressed such a important topic! As a caregiver of my 76yr-young grandmother it is close to my heart. This sector is growing and the tile industry is addressing consumer concerns. Florida Tile now labels their products that are A.D.A. compliant, Americans with Disabilities Act, so that consumers can make educated decisions. Other flooring manufacturers do not use the ADA label, so custonsumers may ask their tile consultant about “Coefficient of Friction” for proper guidelines of slip resistance.

I once heard someone say you can’t shoot a cannon out of a canoe; meaning you need a good solid foundation from which to negotiate life. Thanks for this insight on flooring and successful aging in place. You have provided food for thought and I will focus more on the importance of flooring in remaining home by choice.

Best, Patrick Roden
