SUMMARY:Aging in America Series: What do seniors and caregivers need to consider to age-in-place?
DESCRIPTION:As we endure the COVID-19 pandemic\, and once we have recovered\, aging in America may never be the same. The death toll in nursing homes and long-term care facilities has revealed how unprepared our health care system is to protect our most vulnerable citizens. \nMany seniors and their families consider the option of long-term care at some point. COVID-19 has made many people re-think those options. In addition to long-term care\, some are considering aging-in-place\, or living with relatives if they can. Our sessions will explore the pros and cons all of the options. We will discuss problems and solutions and identify resources that support all of these options for healthy aging. \nWhat resources are required? How to evaluate your home for feasibility of aging-in-place? What modifications will be required? \n  \nhttps://www.wellmedcharitablefoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Aging-in-America-Series-March-10-21.mp4\n  \nAging in America part 2 3 10 21
