BCOA - I want to stay at home! What do I need to do
Thursday, June 8th
10am
Planning is hard because you never know how your needs might change. The first step is to think about the kinds of help you might want in the near future. Maybe you live alone, so there is no one living in your home who is available to help you. Maybe you don't need help right now, but you live with a spouse or family member who does. Everyone has a different situation. This program will discuss options according to the National Institute on Aging.
