“Aging in Your Own Space: Tips for Seniors on Staying in Your Home.”
United Way Caregiver Coalition's September's Virtual Munch & Learn Wednesday, September 23rd from 10:30-11:30am.
Presented by Rebecca Abenante, MA, MSW, LSW, ASW-G – Healthy Aging Coordinator.
Aging-in-place involves being able to remain in the home of your choice, even as your needs may change. However, the decision to stay in your home requires advanced planning and not all seniors have a plan in place. Come learn about common areas of consideration when formulating an aging-in-place plan, including home modifications, assistive technology, health care services, community resources, financial concerns and legal preparations.
This presentation will be done via Zoom which is a very simple app that can be downloaded onto your laptop, phone, iPad or other smart device quickly and for free.
