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.
