A recent report by the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) and Consumer Technology Association (CTA) found that 89% of Americans aged 50 and older prioritize aging safely, independently, and comfortably at home, regardless of age, income, or ability. However, concerns about affordability, safety, healthcare, and cognitive decline pose significant challenges.
Every day, over 10,000 Americans turn 65, and 95% of adults 55 and older hope to remain at home as they age. Yet, many homes aren’t designed for changing needs, leading to over three million ER visits annually due to falls. Nearly one-third of older adults have cognitive impairment, and over 37 million unpaid caregivers face increasing stress.
