A tremendous housing crisis is slowly developing in America. Less than 1% of the homes in the United States have features allowing aging to safely occur in them. By 2032, over 68 million current homeowners will be unable to continue living in their homes, unless significant renovation first occurs.In this book, we take increasingly concerned aging homeowners, and their equally concerned adult children, on a concise journey. We move from inside our society, to outside the home, then inward and throughout a typical residence. At each step, we examine suggested renovations that will enable our elders to continue using those spaces, even as age diminishes their physical and mental capabilities. Perhaps even more importantly, it examines how to set priorities, so such renovations can be done practically and without facing too much resistance.This book is a resource guide to assist in planning facilities of all levels for aging, and at least in one aspect, making an inevitable future more enjoyable
