TIPS ON MAKING THE HOME AGE-FRIENDLY

I visited HOMEDEC (Part 1) last Friday mainly to check out the three design concepts for aged care living. This was touted as the special feature of this year's exhibition. I came away quite disappointed at what was showcased.

Perhaps the limitation could have been due to space constraint.

HOMEDEC (Part 2) is on this weekend from 29 Oct to 1 Nov. The Aged Care show units will be there, but for the benefit of those who are unable to attend HOMEDEC or get a copy of the booklet, we share some tips from the booklet:
