Bloom Township provides free ramps for qualified Bloom Township homeowners in need of a ramp for ingress and egress to their property. Once an application has been approved a member of UAW/Ford Community Service Team will schedule a site visit to take measurements and discuss layout options. Once a design has been selected the drawings and material are completed. Bloom Township takes the drawings and material list and applies for any permits and purchases all materials. Materials are delivered to the property and construction follows shortly after. Build time for these ramps averages 2 days.
The Older Adult Home Modification Program (OAHMP) is to enable low-income elderly persons to remain in their homes through low-cost, low-barrier, high-impact home modifications. The program aims to reduce older adults' risk of falling, improve general safety, increase accessibility, improve functional abilities, and increase independence in the home. This will enable older adults to remain in their homes, that is, to "age in place," rather than move to nursing homes or other assisted care facilities.
