Today, there are more options than ever before for older adults who need help living in their homes or for those who can no longer live alone safely. Gone are the days where an institutional-like nursing home was the only alternative. Family structures also have changed, with a smaller pool of family caregivers living in proximity to help their aging loved ones. The options for care can be overwhelming and confusing but with a little education, families can help their loved ones find a solution that best suits them and their situation. Listen to this podcast to discover the variety of options available to older adults in need of assistance, including resources for staying at home with help and alternative housing options.
