Living options for Baby Boomers have increased dramatically from what was available to their parents and grandparents. Many of them choose to stay in their own homes, or age in place, instead of moving to nursing homes or retirement facilities. This gives them a great deal more privacy and control over their lives and schedules and is also more cost-effective. Many seniors require assistance with daily tasks, but don’t need enough help to require moving to an assisted living facility. Family members often help out, but sometimes they don’t live close enough, or don’t have flexible schedules. Assisting Hands Home Care – Hollywood, FL provides a wide range of services that help seniors age in place comfortably and with dignity in Plantation, FL.
