How can I stay in my home?
You are not alone if you are concerned about being able to stay in your home if you need help. You might be surprised to learn about risks you have and what you can do to deal with your risks. The University of Minnesota worked with the Minnesota Board on Aging to research and create a short, seven question quiz that would help older adults and families learn about your risk for moving to an assisted living or a nursing home.
Live Well at Home Rapid Screen© Quiz is an easy-to-use tool that takes just a few minutes. By taking the quiz you will learn what risk factors or issues might make it difficult for you to stay living in your own home. Your answers are for your use only as they are not recorded once you leave the website.
