Seems Staying In Place Is An Idea For Independence

We are always on the search for articles about "staying in place" or as others have called it... "aging in place."  And we are amazed at the number of magazines and newspapers that are writing about this concept,... particularly in the last 60 days or so. 

Perhaps the media is seeing that same things that our own DAASE members are seeing and that is the upcoming senior tsunami is rapidly approaching with the Baby Boomers now contemplating their future.  

So when we stumbled upon a video interview, we thought we should share that with you, our blog readers.  But first... here is a quote from the interview....

“She has this independent spirit and she’s really smart. I can see that she’s at this place in her life now where her independence means even more to her because she can feel she’s being physically challenged every day,” 

----Actress Susan Sarandon.


That quote reflects the conversations we see going on among many of our members and their clients.  And just like Susan... groups of families are now beginning to think about having to care for a mother or father, uncle, best friend or colleague as they age.  And planning to "stay in place" is the best plan for an independent future for these folks.
