Moving, Relocating, Down-Sizing
Considering making a move? Here's help! Moving is one of life's most traumatic and emotional transitions. Leaving a beloved, long-time residence, relocating to a new geographic location, down-sizing to smaller spaces, reviewing senior housing or alternative senior home care options only add stress.
Understanding priorities, preferences, financial and health status and other similar issues can help an elderly person make the right choices and make the moves as pleasnt as possible. Some special considerations for older people who are moving include ease and accessibility to transportation, the avilability of help with items such as errands and household repairs, access to health care, the proximity of local senor health and fitness facilities and assisstance with the actual move itself. Depending on the situation and timing of a needed move, enrolling the services of a care manager familar with nearby facilities and programs may be a smart way to save both time and money.
