Seniors Well-Being Programs
At older ages, mental health is shaped not only by physical and social environments but also by the cumulative impacts of earlier life experiences and specific stressors related to ageing. Exposure to adversity, significant loss in intrinsic capacity and a decline in functional ability can all result in psychological distress.
Older adults are more likely to experience adverse events such as bereavement, or a drop in income or reduced sense of purpose with retirement. Despite their many contributions to society, many older adults are subject to ageism, which can seriously affect people’s mental health.
The Aspire Health Well-Being Toolkit for Seniors includes expert tools and resources to help families, care teams, and providers to support the improvement of all Seniors mental well-being and happiness.
