Survey Shows Seniors Overwhelmingly Support Aging in Place

When it comes to healthy aging, most seniors say there’s nothing better than aging in place.

This process, which sees a senior stay at the home they’ve become comfortable in even as their health needs change, is statistically popular among older Americans by a huge margin.

This survey from U.S. News, which surveyed 1500 adults over the age of 55, found that 95 percent say aging in place is important. This is up from 93 percent just a year ago.

The survey also highlights the importance of health-related technology in helping seniors achieve this goal. This can include everything from wearable health-tracking devices to delivery service apps and more. Whether a senior needs a high level of assistance or just a little help to age in place, the right technologies will do the trick.

The best way for seniors to afford the solutions they need to stay healthy and age in place is to get the full Social Security benefits they deserve. Do you plan to age in place? Do you have everything you need in order to do so?

Help The Seniors Center Protect the Future of Social Security

The Seniors Center is committed to finding solutions to strengthen and protect the Social Security Trust Fund. Social Security is a contract between citizens and the government. Money deposited in the Trust Fund should only be used to pay benefits to eligible recipients.

The Seniors Center is demanding Congress finally put a stop to the careless borrowing and spending by greedy politicians that has put our Trust Fund and our secure retirement in jeopardy.

At The Seniors Center, our goal is to help seniors, and we’re doing that by protecting the future of Social Security. Retirees shouldn’t have to worry about losing their hard-earned benefits to taxes or the agendas of greedy politicians.
