Course: Is Aging in Place the Right Decision for You? (OSH-AGEINPLCE)

Aging is a given. Planning is a choice, so let's join Brenda Davis and explore whether aging in place is the best option for you. 70% of us are going to need long-term care so it is important to be proactive rather than reactive! 90% of Americans would like to stay in their home and age in place. What are the pros and cons of staying in your home? Once needed, how will my care get organized and paid for? Will Medicare cover my long-term care needs? What will happen if at some point health-wise it is no longer safe to stay at home?
