Many seniors have a strong desire to age in place. If you are not familiar with the phrase, it refers to elderly adults who wish to remain in their own homes, rather than move to assisted living. A growing number of seniors are discovering the benefits of receiving professional care at home as opposed to in a nursing facility. Visiting Angels^® Clearwater FL provides referrals of qualified caregivers who can help your loved one age in place.
