C. ELDER SUPPORT
  • The state should fund community-based support services that aim to avoid unnecessary nursing-home placements and encourage the highest degree of independence, dignity and choice for our elders.
  • Community programs should make use of the wisdom, expertise and energy of elders.
  • Housing options for elders should include both multi- generational settings and peer-based settings.
  • Workers should have the option of phased-in retirement –
    • to ease the transition from working to retirement;
    • to allow time for economic and personal adjustment;
    • to allow for the development of replacement social connections; and
    • to help retirees find a new place in the community.
