Everyone wants to be in control of their lives regardless of age—including staying at home and remaining independent for as long as possible. Everyone wants to be in control of their lives regardless of age—including staying independently at home for as long as possible. What older adults are able to do and what their homes allow them to do is dependent on remodeling or designing a home using universal design concepts which permit seniors to live in their homes longer, safely, and independently. No matter what “aging stage” you or your loved ones are approaching, get practical advice and smart tips: • Empty nest syndrome adults can remodel their home to include space for aging parents or in-house help in the future. • Retirees looking for their dream home should make sure it is adaptable and provides security, safety, and comfort. • Older seniors can modify their spaces in 4 ways: fall prevention, barrier-free spaces, remodeling, and installing smart equipment. Attendees will have a chance to win a copy of Aging In Places: Reflective Preparation for the Future.
