The Home

One of the biggest reasons we wanted to create this guide is so that people felt comfortable and confident in their ability to stay in their homes for longer. And, depending on your needs and how you see your later life panning out, that concept of ‘home’ will mean different things for different people. As our needs change, we need to make sure our home is in the best state possible so that we feel safe and secure, and also empowered to focus on the things we want to. From making sure your home is kitted out with proper accessibility features, to understanding the power of technology in assisting with our care and general wellbeing, this chapter covers the different aspects of the home to consider for yourself or your loved one.
