Many things change as we age. While change can be difficult, it can also be exhilarating and reveal new opportunities. Critical aspects of our lives that may require change are where and how we live. The home we lived in for decades may be a place of great comfort and familiarity, but it may no longer be viable in its present configuration when our physical capacities decline, or we require more care.
The purpose of this Handbook is twofold: 1) to describe ways you can remain in your own home more safely and comfortably as you age, and 2) to help you explore the continuum of housing options with and without services, should you require a move.
