Top Ten Ways to Stay in Your Home as You Age

2011 AARP report on the aging preferences of seniors found that 90% stated that they would prefer to age in place (stay in their own homes). Wow, what a surprise! Of course we want to stay in our own homes. The surroundings are familiar, our friends and family may be close by, and our church home could be just blocks away. Only makes sense, right? Not so fast. If 90% of us say we want to stay in our own homes as we age then the question is "are 90% of us SERIOUS?" If you said "yes!" join us on Tues., Jan. 20 to find out the 10 things to consider if you want to stay in your own home. The program will be held at South Iredell Senior Center at 11 a.m., presented by Cyndi Caldwell Certified Senior Advisor with Seniors Helping Seniors. A light lunch will be included. To attend, please RSVP with a $1 donation to South Iredell Senior Center by Thurs., Jan. 15. There will be no selling or asking for personal information. This program is for educational purposes only. No registration by phone.
