Aging in Place
Tuesday, September 12, 2017

For many seniors, the biggest challenge of growing older is losing their independence. But early planning and advancements in technology are helping many seniors stay in the home of their choice, allowing them to remain independent. It's known as aging in place, and it typically involves renovating an existing home or relocating to communities planned around supporting the elderly.
