Accessible storage in the district of Visp
DomusHelp helps organize practical support to make certain storage areas more accessible at home in the district of Visp and Upper Valais. This subcategory concerns simple actions that make everyday objects easier to reach: bringing frequently used belongings closer, freeing a comfortable-height area, making a drawer easier to understand, lightening an overloaded shelf, placing boxes that are easy to grip, labelling containers or reporting when a storage area requires a craftsperson, a trusted reference person or a health professional. Interventions must remain simple, non-medical, non-therapeutic, non-structural, without work at height, without heavy moving and always respectful of consent, privacy and personal belongings.
What this help covers
This help may concern small organizational improvements: placing objects used every day between an easy-to-reach height and an area that does not require deep bending or climbing onto support, grouping belongings by use, making a cupboard less confusing, moving light objects to a safer area, preparing a clearly identifiable basket or box, clearing access to a cupboard or organizing a request with a qualified provider when a storage area must be fixed, reinforced or transformed. The aim is to reduce situations where a person has to climb, bend too low, search for a long time, pull on unstable furniture, carry an object that is too heavy or ask for help to access simple belongings.
Preferred providers
Insured light home organization service
Suitable for simple, non-intrusive and clearly defined actions: bringing light objects closer, making a drawer easier to understand, preparing accessible boxes, labelling containers or clarifying a storage area used in everyday life.
Qualified local craftsperson or furniture specialist
Suitable when furniture must be fixed, reinforced, modified, dismantled, moved in a heavy way or replaced, or when there is doubt about stability, load, fixings, rails, drawers, doors or shelves.
Occupational therapist, health professional or trusted reference person
Suitable when storage is linked to loss of independence, balance difficulties, memory difficulties, hospital discharge, painful movements, significant fatigue or a lasting adaptation of everyday life.
Before the intervention
- Identify precisely the area concerned: kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, entrance, living room, wardrobe, cupboard, chest of drawers, shelf, pantry, laundry room or storage room.
- Clarify which objects should be made accessible: belongings used every day, every week, rarely, fragile objects, heavy objects, documents, medication or personal effects.
- Obtain clear agreement before opening, moving, grouping, labelling or photographing a storage area, especially if it contains private papers, money, jewellery, medication or memories.
- Check the stability of the furniture, lighting, height, depth of the storage area, risk of falling objects, load on shelves and absence of any need for a ladder, step stool or heavy carrying.
- Plan an organization that is simple, reversible and understandable for the person: visible objects, easy-to-grip boxes, readable labels, obstacle-free access and logic that respects the person’s habits.
- Refuse or interrupt the intervention if the situation involves fall risk, conflict over belongings, doubt about consent, an unsupported cognitive difficulty, unstable furniture, heavy loads, dangerous products or specialized work.
