Planned accommodations include:
- Barrier-free access for those with restricted mobility
- Fully-accessible bathroom with a roll-in shower
- Kitchen that incorporates universal design principles
- Flashing smoke alarms and other alerts
- Two bedrooms to allow for a companion
- Service animals welcome
