THEME: "Redefining Aging: Science, Innovation, and Longevity"
Aging in place means growing older while staying in your own home and community, rather than moving to a nursing facility or care home. It allows older adults to maintain their independence, comfort, and familiar routines for as long as possible. To age in place successfully, people may need support such as home modifications, in-home care, or community services. This approach can improve quality of life and emotional well-being by keeping seniors connected to their surroundings and loved ones. Aging in place is becoming more popular as people seek dignity and independence in later life.
