As we age, the goal is to live on our own terms, in our own space, for as long as possible. Transitioning to a "senior-friendly" home doesn't have to mean sacrificing style or comfort. This transition, however, requires a balance between maintaining independence and acknowledging changing physical needs. With a few key adjustments, you can ensure your home remains your sanctuary of autonomy.
Take our 10-question quiz designed to test your knowledge of safety, design and support systems for aging in place.
