Covid-19 has exemplified the challenges of communal living for seniors. Although there are numerous psychological and physical benefits of senior living, a vulnerable population living in close proximity to one another, can be a tinder box for airborne disease transmission. Senior communities will be adjusting policies to reduce this risk in the future, but how will it affect the Aging in Place movement? Only the future will tell. But, for those who desire to stay at home, or reside in a smaller residential setting, a nurse care managers can provide a bridge for families and loved ones. While supporting the independence of older adults, care managers provide and work with families to provide highly individualized services. I am happy to answer questions and work with families and seniors to evaluate their situations now and going forward.
