The household model of senior living, sometimes called the small home model, is a growing trend that addresses these desires.

However, in order to keep the good times going, it’s also important to set yourself up for preventing injuries. Senior safety in the home is especially important, given that seniors over 65 account for 71% of home product-related deaths per year, with falls being by far the most common cause.
