A Simple Guide to Aging at Home

More seniors today are choosing to “age in place,” staying in the comfort of their own homes as they grow older. With the right support, this option can promote independence, safety, and peace of mind. Here’s what families should consider:

• Home Safety: Install grab bars, improve lighting, remove trip hazards, and consider emergency alert systems.

• Health & Wellness: Focus on nutrition, regular exercise, and keeping up with medical appointments.

• Daily Assistance: Home caregivers can help with personal care, meal preparation, transportation, and household tasks.

• Social Connection: Staying connected through family visits, companionship care, or community activities prevents isolation.

• Technology Support: Tools like medication reminders, smart home devices, and video calls make independent living easier.

• Caregiver Support: Respite services and professional help reduce stress on family members.

• Planning Ahead: Discuss long-term care needs, financial planning, and medical preferences early to avoid last-minute stress.
