Senior Housing Overview
Goal of Senior Housing
Our goal is to provide tools to educate seniors, caregivers and their families about housing choices in East King County when considering aging in place or transitioning to a new home.
Overview
This site will help you to assess your values and needs; and
evaluate the many housing and service options that are available
to seniors in East King County.
This site will also help service providers and family
members who care for seniors with making housing decisions.
Please refer to the
navigation bar to the left for a list of topics discussed on the
Senior Housing Options pages.
Materials to help assess housing options can be individually
downloaded as you read through the web pages. They are also
listed on the last web page for your convenience.
Additionally, the Senior Housing Option Handbook can be
downloaded to share with others who may not have computer
access. It contains content of these web pages together with the
assessment and evaluation forms.
Fall Prevention
While making plans for the future, please take time now to
improve safety in your existing home. Falls are the most common cause of injury and hospital admission
for trauma in older adults. Fall prevention is critical to your long term mobility and
quality of life.
