Description

Where we choose to live when we retire has an enormous impact on our life satisfaction and well-being as we age. What is suitable housing for an adult in the earlier "go-go" years of retirement may become totally unsuitable for a frail elder in the later "no-go" years. While most people express the desire to stay in their homes, to "age-in-place", most do end up making one or more moves during their retirement years, often triggered by a medical crisis. The key point is that you need to have a plan. If you dont, and you have a crisis, you may have very few options, and someone else could be choosing your housing for you. This book looks at the major questions which impact your retirement housing choices - choices that can determine your life satisfaction and well-being during your retirement years. While this book is written for Boomers planning their own retirement lifestyle, it includes information that will be helpful for people assisting aging parents or family members make these decisions, especially when it comes to care needs. While we dont pick a nursing home for ourselves when we are active and vital, many Boomers are having to deal with finding care facilities or home care for their parents or other family members. The book includes numerous links to resources for home modification, evaluating senior housing options, and care facilities and other providers of services to older adults.
