What Is…Aging in Place?

by Gilbert Guide

question mark

Aging in place refers to the concept of seniors staying in their own homes rather than moving out when their health needs change. This same idea also applies to residents of long-term care facilities, as long as they don’t have to move (even to another area of the facility) when their needs change. Aging in place is gaining in popularity as a means to ensure that seniors can stay in environments that are comfortable to them.
