Living Comfortably and Securely at Home with the CHIP Reverse Mortgage.
What is Aging in Place?
Aging in place refers to living safely, comfortably, and independently in your home for as long as possible. It involves having access to necessary services, healthcare, and support to ensure security and comfort at home.
The Benefits of Aging in Place
More than 90% of Canadians dream of aging in place. Staying in your home allows you to remain rooted in your community and preserves the memories you’ve created. It also means maintaining independence without adhering to a structured mealtime or activity schedule. Being close to family and friends and continuing day-to-day activities that bring meaning and fulfillment can enrich your quality of life. Here’s a quick overview of the benefits of aging in place:
- You don’t have to downsize your home or your possessions
- Enjoy the comfort and familiarity of your home and surroundings
- Maintain control over your daily schedule
- Keep your independence and privacy
