SUMMARY:Disruptors & Dilemmas presents: Empowering aging in place
DESCRIPTION:As the global population ages\, more of us are facing decisions about how and where to spend our later years or how to best care for our aging family. With workforce shortages\, rising healthcare costs and a desire for independence\, aging in place is becoming a preferred option.   \nAging in place allows people to remain in their homes\, surrounded by familiar settings\, which significantly enhances their quality of life. Advances in smart home devices\, assistive technologies and personalized care align with the principles of aging in place\, making it a practical and dignified option\, when possible. Supporting aging in place ensures that our loved ones—and eventually ourselves—can age with dignity\, connection and the comfort of home.  \nHow can user-centered design enhance the quality of life and safety for aging populations? How can interdisciplinary efforts enhance patient care? What challenges remain? Join us as three experts explore the future of care and the critical role of collaboration in enhancing well-being. \nRead about the panelists and register for the event.\n\n\n\nThis is a Disruptors and Dilemmas speaker series event.\nThis event is co-hosted by: University of Toronto Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering\, Faculty of Arts & Science\, Rotman School of Management\, and Temerty Faculty of Medicine.
