What is “Aging in Place”?

Many seniors are making the choice to age in place. This means that they are choosing to remain in the comfort of their own home or a family member’s home for the duration of the aging process. Seniors who do not choose to age in place often move to residential senior care facilities or nursing homes.

Typically, seniors who wish to age in place at home will require some form of in-home care.
