Some Aging in Place design elements included in an Aging in Place home include convenience, safety and comfort for senior residents who want to remain in their home.
In Neenah, Wisconsin The CareGiver Partnership is launching a model home project that includes an automation system, environmental sensors, motion sensors, fall prevention tools and mobility features geared specifically toward the needs of older residents.
There are thousands of baby boomers turning 65 everyday and there is a severe shortage of affordable long-term care facilities and trained caregivers. That is why Aging in Place is so important.

The home in Wisconsin is scheduled to be completed on November 1 and serve as a demonstration for anyone interested.
