Description
My book is here 📚 https://marilynliving.com
After 30 years working inside senior living-from the front desk to admissions and move-ins-I learned that wanting to stay home is often not denial, stubbornness, or a problem to fix. In this video, I explain the seven reasons smart seniors choose home, what I witnessed over three decades, and what current research now confirms.
I share which concerns turned out to be right, why returning home can bring such profound relief, and the three things that can help make staying there safer and more realistic. I’m Marilyn Vance, and I’ve spent my career listening to people make one of the biggest decisions of their lives.
