title: There's no place like home.
abstract: People typically wish to remain in their homes as they age. Although many community-based services exist to support this wish, people often are unaware of these resources and seek institutional placement instead, thinking that it is their only option. This commentary aims to address this lack of information by discussing various stay-at-home options.
