As life expectancy is steadily rising, with WHO reporting that approximately 16% of the global population will be over 60 by 2030, it's clear that there's a growing need for strategies to promote long-term health and life quality. Senior Health Care Hub's latest guide is based on these insights and aims to address the issues related to older adults' mental health.
According to an article from the National Council of Aging, many preventative measures like vaccines and dental check-ups are encouraged by the healthcare system, while mental health doesn't have the same status. However, the article states that the 25% of older adults considered to be socially isolated have a higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease and high blood pressure, in addition to psychological aspects like increased risk of depression and suicidal thoughts. Exemplifying the gravity of this issue is a study from 2010 that found loneliness increased mortality by 50%, meaning that it has a greater effect than obesity and air pollution.
In Senior Health Care Hub's guide, readers can learn how community engagement and social connections can reduce the serious health impact of isolation. By combining meaningful relationships and a sense of group affiliation with physical activities like gardening, yoga, or swimming, older adults should be able to see improvements in their mood and quality of life.
Further, the guide emphasizes the importance of recognizing early symptoms and taking proactive steps to maintain good mental health. It explains how open conversations and supportive networks can help seniors feel more inclined to discuss their issues.
"Taking care of your mental health is an investment in yourself - one that will greatly benefit you as you age gracefully," said a company spokesperson. "So don’t hesitate to prioritize your well-being because you deserve to live a fulfilling life at every stage."
Senior Health Care Hub is an online resource for people over 65 and their caregivers looking for easy-to-read and well-researched advice about common age-related conditions.
