[quote=Anonymous]You sound very ignorant. The elderly generally want to stay in familiar surroundings, ie, their own home. Practically none of them move because they want to. They move because they have to. Usually their executive functioning declines and they are not able to maintain their home or navigate risks such as steps/stairs/driving in a safe manner. So they need to live with other, more functional people to compensate for their declining abilities. Sometimes caregivers can be hired and ramps/lifts installed so they can stay in their home. Sometimes they need to move to a relative's home, or a nursing home. Not sure why this would confuse you, OP. [/quote]
