Residential Choices and Experiences of Older Adults [PDF ebook] 
Pathways to Life Quality

Stöd

Based on the Pathways to Life Quality longitudinal research study, this book explores the ways in which older adults’ residential choices impact their health and well-being. The study examines the factors associated with life quality for persons living on their own in the local community, as well as those in various housing arrangements such as a continuing care retirement facility, adult home, income-subsidized housing, and senior apartments. Topics include plans and adjustment to moving; role identities; social relationships, participation, and integration; health and activity patterns; and coping with life events.
