Beth Van Deusen, of HGH Construction, LLC recently became one of the select group of professionals nationwide to earn the Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist (CAPS) designation, identifying her as one of the building industry’s top professionals with skills and knowledge specific to home modifications for aging-in-place.
CAPS, created by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) in collaboration with AARP, was developed to help home remodeling professionals meet the needs of the 77 million Baby Boomers that will reach retirement age in the first years of the 21st century. The CAPS designation identifies remodelers that have been trained to help retirees and older adults remain in their homes safely, independently and comfortable, regardless of income or ability level, and continue to live in a familiar environment throughout their maturing years.
Ms. Van Deusen has been with HGH Construction for 13 years as a residential designer. Her CAPS designation is an extension of the services she already offers to homeowners needing renovation plans.
