What is aging in place?
Aging in place
(aka 'age in place') is the ability to live in one's own home of choice and community - wherever that might be - for as long as confidently
and comfortably possible. Livability can be extended through
the incorporation of
universal design principles,
telecare
and other assistive technologies.
