English term or phrase: Aging in place

A specific collocation used in social scientific and technical discourse to describe the advantages for elderly people in living at home, as opposed to moving to nursing homes. Original context: 'For the health care community, the ability to monitor older adults in their home to support "aging in place" is of significant interest.'

Japanese translation:住み慣れた場所で老後を過ごすこと

Explanation:
This render shows "aging in an appropriate place" that "aging in place" conveys. For the elderly, the appropriate place is where they have been living and are familiar with.
(Seems like the source is US English from the way "ageing" is spelt.)

Explanation:
在宅での老後 is a more direct translation but I would think that 在宅ケア is more appropriate for a kind of seniors who might be living in nursing homes. The word combination, zaitaku and care, is often used.

aging in place 居宅支援体制により老後を在宅で過ごすこと

Explanation:
I know it may look awkward to you compared to one-word source but the thing is your text do not provide information as to what kind of service seniors specifically need or if they also involve medical care.
They may be staying healthy to the end only needing saying hi but also may be already needing to see doctors and take medicine.
I needed to cover both so this look like a chimère. こと makes a noun. 居宅 is originally a word for elders' home care
while I think 在宅 is mainly for visiting medicine services and for patients who are spending lifetime at home.
