Later Adulthood Development Report

Imagine you are a director at a nursing home facility. You are discussing, with a potential client's family, the needs of, and the changes facing, older adults.

Write a 1,050- to 1,400-word report in which you describe to the potential client's family the personality and social development that occur in later adulthood.

Address the following in your report:

• Explain changes in role and social position during this stage.
• Compare living accommodations, such as accessibility and the need for health care.
• Illustrate the adjustment and transition from work to retirement.
• Describe changes in marriage, family, and peer relationships.
• Identify social policies that affect the older adult.
