HOME,SWEET HOME

The world’s 65and older populationwill tripleby mid-centuryto 1 in 6 people.

As the fastest growing age group,

seniors make upjust under 8

percent of the world’s

6.8 billion people.

In the U.S., residents who are

65 and older currently make up 13 percent of the population, but

that will double to 88.5 million by mid-century.

Until recent decades, people rarely needed extensive personal care over a long period of

time.

However, with the average age

increasing, patterns of care are very different today.

Nearly 70 percent of those who turned 65 in 2005 will need to

plan long-term services to help them through their Golden

Years.

In the U.S. today, 10 million elderly and disabled adults require care.

But as the number of those needing

care rises, the pool of potential caregivers is

expected to shrink.

Independence – making yourown choices;

not having to rely on others to decide your future for you.

Staying at HomeNearly 80 percent of

long-term care is provided at home, much of it by friends or family

members who work outside the home and

have many obligations.

This can seem overwhelming, but GlenWood Park Retirement Village can take care of everything.
