Join us on Zoom to learn strategies to help an older adult remain in their home for as long as possible. Presented by LEAP (Linking Employment, Abilities, and Potential). Registration is required.
For several reasons people want to stay in their home and their community as they age, instead of moving to a retirement community or other type of facility.
How to do this as safely as possible requires thinking about the home's structure and personally adapting as physical capabilities change. As we age, we know that vision, hearing, muscle strength, balance and more can become different. As we change, our surroundings may also need to be adapted to allow as much independence and safety as possible. The home may need to be modified structurally while we may need to make lifestyle changes.
LEAP (Linking Employment, Abilities, and Potential) will discuss techniques and resources to discover if Aging in Place is your best option.
Registration is required. After registration, you will receive an email with instructions on how to join the meeting.
