Companionship
The majority of older adults prefer to remain in their own home as they grow older. With assistance from family caregivers, and/or private duty nursing and nurse aides, they need never to move to a senior living community. This is a positive choice for those that wish to stay close to their history, possessions, and family memories. Regardless, everyone needs companionship to avoid feelings of isolation and loneliness.
