"AGING IN PLACE" PROGRAMS

“Aging in place” initiatives provide seniors with the necessary support services to remain in their own homes as they age, allowing them to delay or avoid entering assisted living facilities. In some communities, elderly residents themselves are forming “aging in place” or “virtual retirement” communities by establishing nonprofit membership organizations that negotiate and obtain shared services and programs for their members.
