U.S. homeless shelters are adapting for aging adults with better access, medical care, and dignity.
Homeless shelters across the U.S. are increasingly modifying their facilities and services to address the needs of older adults, who now make up the fastest-growing segment of the homeless population.
Shelters are installing grab bars, improving accessibility, offering on-site medical care, and providing private or gender-specific sleeping areas to better support seniors facing chronic health conditions, mobility issues, and isolation.
Staff are receiving training in geriatric care, and many are partnering with healthcare providers and social services to coordinate benefits and long-term housing support.
These changes aim to create safer, more dignified environments for aging individuals navigating poverty and housing instability amid rising costs and strained safety nets.
