Measuring the Costs, Savings of Aging in Place
Evidence suggests programs that support aging in place may yield cost savings for families, government, and health systems
Aging in place has also been shown to have health and emotional benefits over institutional care
It's catching on. A recent article in HousingFinance.com illustrates how developers for-profit and non-profit are recognizing the benefits of combining housing and healthcare.
We are delighted to be on the forefront of this trend in North Carolina
Housing and healthcare is a winning combination
