From golf and swimming to pottery and music, happier ageing is about rediscovering the fun in life.

"What did you used to love doing that you no longer do?"
At Nurse Next Door, we’ve always thought ageing was something to be celebrated. Happier Ageing® means reconnecting older people with interests, hobbies, and passions that might have gotten lost amid busy schedules, health concerns, or other distractions.
When you book a free Caring Consult, you’ll meet with a Care Designer to identify the activities that will bring happiness–even if it’s small or simple. We’ll match your loved one to a perfect-fit caregiver who can help bring the plan to life.
Overall, what she gets is care, honest-to-goodness care. I get the peace of mind of knowing that my mother is with a company that sincerely cares about her. They give you basic respect, dignity and the tender loving care that all of our parents want and that we want for our parents.”

Their care allows me to run the rest of my life, you know, because I have a full-time job and two 16-year-olds who need to go places. Nurse Next Door has taken the burden off of me. There’s really no other way we could have managed it.

Four Pillars of Happier Ageing®
Travel & Adventure
Could you imagine Mum or Dad travelling again? From local day trips to having exotic destinations brought into the home, ageing shouldn’t prevent anyone from experiencing the joy of adventure.
Learning
You’re never too experienced or old to learn. Whether it’s a new recipe, a card game or a new instrument, learning keeps the mind sharp.
Connections & Relationships
By connecting clients to family and friends–in some cases ones they’d lost contact with decades ago–we’ve seen more smiles and laughter than we can count.
Play
Every adult should rediscover the fun in life. We can help older people play like they used to, even if it means wading in the pool rather than swimming in their childhood lake.
Happier Ageing® in action
Happier Ageing® has given older people a chance to rekindle passions and interests.
