An article in the St. Tammany News on keeping the home environment safe for the elderly quotes Danise Levine, assistant director of UB's IDEA Center. "We see a lot of seniors who don't want to admit they're getting older so they don't want to make changes in their homes. Secondly, consumer education is an issue. If older adults do need help they often don't know where to go or how much things cost," she said.
