Assistance in living assures aging in place.
Life care and other large retirement centers transfer failing residents to assisted living units or nursing beds at various points. North Hill, a life care center, keeps many of its residents in their apartments years longer, with every department contributing to a creative, cost-effective Assistance-in-Living home care program. This program could inspire home care agencies to contract their services to other such communities.
