Abstract

Date Presented 04/04/19

Aging in place (AIP) is one’s ability to live at home without relocation to long-term care. The purpose of this study was to highlight the facilitators and barriers in one’s AIP implementation. OTs can apply these themes to increase the quality of life and potential of older adults to age in place.
