Pike County is the heart of the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant workforce: past and present. If you worked at PGDP and your physician has approved home modifications under EEOICPA, HHS handles the construction side across Piketon, Waverly, Beaver, and the surrounding Pike County properties. We work in partnership with Nuclear Worker Solutions, who handles the medical assessment, EEOICPA eligibility, and program coordination. You qualify with them; we build with you. Call (740) 357-9020 to talk through a project.
Why Pike County EEOICPA Work Looks Different
Pike County properties around Piketon, Wakefield, and out toward Waverly tend to be older single-story ranches and farmhouses: the housing stock that’s well-suited to accessibility modifications since most have main-floor primary bedrooms already. Many former PGDP workers still live in the homes they bought during the plant’s active years, which means we’re often updating bathrooms and entries in homes from the 1950s through 1980s. Older plaster walls, original 1970s wiring, and shorter doorways are common. We plan the scope around those realities.
What EEOICPA Covers in Pike County
EEOICPA covers home modifications recommended by your treating physician to help you manage your occupational illness and stay independent at home. No homebound requirement: you don’t have to be unable to leave the house to qualify. The program is designed to help nuclear workers stay healthy and active longer.
Common scopes we build under EEOICPA in Pike County:
Bathroom accessibility: walk-in tubs, curbless showers, grab bars in framing, comfort-height toilets, slip-resistant tile. Most common modification.
Entry ramps and stair lifts: ADA-spec exterior ramps with code slope, interior stair lift installs.
Whole-home accessibility: widened doorways, pocket doors, lever hardware, threshold removal, task-height lighting.
Accessible additions: primary-suite additions on the main floor of older two-story homes, attached carport conversions to accessible entries.
