I’m thrilled to share something new! While Pre-Op Solutions continues its mission of supporting individuals through surgical preparation and recovery, I’m also working on Accessible Towns—a project aimed at improving access to public spaces for everyone, regardless of ability. We’re excited to be launching Accessible Asheville in Summer 2025, and I’d love for you to follow along on this new journey. Please follow the Accessible Towns page for updates and join us in building a more inclusive community! 💛

🌟 Aging in Place: More Than Just Staying at Home 🌟

Aging in place is about more than deciding to stay in your home—it’s about creating a life where safety, independence, and comfort come together. At Pre-Op Solutions, we believe this journey is multi-dimensional, requiring thoughtful planning and intentional adjustments.

🏡 Why a Safe and Comprehensive Plan Matters:
Aging in place means considering your home’s environment, your physical needs, and your future goals. Without a plan, unforeseen challenges—like accessibility issues or home hazards—can compromise safety and peace of mind.

🌪️ Hurricane Helene Highlighted the Need for Preparedness:
When the storm hit, many in our community were left without power, water, or access to vital resources. For seniors, this became a stark reminder of the importance of home safety and recovery planning. Pre-Op Solutions stepped up to support our neighbors, and we remain committed to helping seniors feel secure and prepared in their homes.

💡 What We Offer:
Our in-home assessments prioritize environmental safety—addressing fall risks, mobility barriers, and emergency preparedness. We provide personalized recommendations, whether it’s installing grab bars, improving lighting, or planning for future health needs.

💙 Accessible to Everyone:
We know these services are vital, which is why we offer sliding scale rates to ensure cost isn’t a barrier. Everyone deserves to feel safe at home, and we’re here to make that a reality.

Spotlight on Fall Prevention
🛠️ Did you know that 1 in 4 adults over 65 falls each year? Many of these falls happen in the home due to preventable hazards. Pre-Op Solutions offers in-home assessments to identify and address risks like slippery floors, loose rugs, or inadequate lighting.
✅ Let’s create a safe environment where you can thrive.

Dear Friends,

It has been a long journey since Hurricane Helene struck WNC, and for us at Pre-Op Solutions, the storm brought an unexpected shift in focus. While we couldn’t continue business as usual, we channeled our energy into starting Asheville Angels, an effort to support homebound seniors in our community when they needed it most. Some of you may have followed our updates along the way as we helped hundreds of seniors regain stability, navigate challenges, and reclaim hope.

This past week was spent tying up final assignments and discharge planning for seniors we've continued to care for, and now we’re ready to turn our attention back to the mission that started it all: helping individuals prepare for successful recoveries and age safely in the comfort of their homes.

As we rebuild, I’m reaching out to you—our community, supporters, and friends—for help. Your referrals and connections have always been a lifeline for us, and we humbly ask for your support again:

Referral Partners: Introductions to physicians, PCPs, surgeons, or others who might recommend our services to those recovering from surgery or aging in place.
Speaking Engagements: Opportunities to speak to professionals or the public about recovery planning, fall prevention, and creating safe environments for aging.
Contractors & Handymen: Connections to those with an interest in home modifications and aging in place who can partner with us to make a real difference.
Community Connections: If you know someone who could benefit from our services, we’d be honored to be part of their journey.
We’re committed to this work and this community, as we have been from the beginning. Our mission remains steadfast: to serve seniors with care, compassion, and solutions that improve their lives and homes. But the truth is, we need your help to continue. If you believe in what we do, please share this post with others who might connect us to opportunities or individuals in need of our services.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us. Together, we can build a stronger, more supportive community for our seniors.

With gratitude,
Katie Reph
Owner & Founder, Pre-Op Solutions
