What is Aging in Place?
“Aging in place” refers to the ability of an individual to live in their own home and community safely, independently, and comfortably, regardless of age, income, or ability level. The concept emphasizes the preference many older adults have to remain in familiar surroundings and maintain their independence as they age, rather than moving to new settings such as nursing homes or assisted living facilities. Aging in place may involve various supportive services and home modifications that allow individuals to remain in their home safely and maintain a high quality of life.
