Did you know there is a Plan from Arizona’s Governor called “Aging 2020 Arizona’s Plan for an Aging Population”?

As we were searching around for resources for seniors in Arizona, we found this plan originally written under Governor Janet Napolitano’s hand.  Although we have a new Governor in Jan Brewer now, the plan exists and is very important.

Here is the link to the entire plan and a copy of the table of contents.   As always, if RIGHT AT HOME PHOENIX can be of assistance with your Senior Care or Elder needs, please call us at 602-569-7240 anytime.  Thank you!
