FAQ: What is aging in place? ⏰
Aging in place means seniors choose to stay in their own homes as they grow older, rather than moving into an independent or assisted living community. It offers numerous health benefits, including:
❤️ Community connections: Staying at home allows seniors to remain part of their neighborhood communities, surrounded by family and friends.
❤️ Familiar surroundings: Beloved objects and memory cues create comfort, this is especially beneficial for those with Alzheimer’s or dementia, reducing confusion and improving mental engagement.
❤️ Less Stress: relocating and adjusting to a new environment can be challenging for seniors.
❤️ Cost savings: aging in place can often be more affordable than facility care.
