Abstract

Barriers to aging in place include physical mobility and transportation limitations, isolation related loneliness and depression, diminishing health status, housing quality, finances, and caregiving resources. The scope of the aging demographic shift, economic consequences and loss of quality of life urge adoption of such successful approaches as the life course model. Desirable aging in place provides person-centered quality of living that is independence-effective and affordable. Systematic community-centered and person-centered approaches are crucial to accomplishing the central actions of the life course model. Not only are the actions necessary, they are interactive, interdependent, and strategic in supporting one another.
