"I hate going to the hospital"
It's a sentiment shared by many, especially our elders, for whom a hospital visit is not just a trip but a journey fraught with challenges
Accessibility Issues
For many elders, just getting to the hospital is a hurdle. Mobility issues, reliance on public transport, or the need for assistance turn what should be a simple visit into a logistical challenge
Stress of the Environment
Hospitals, by their very nature, can be stressful environments. This stress can exacerbate existing conditions for our elders, making them feel worse, not better
Exposure to Infections
Elders, particularly those with compromised immune systems, face a higher risk of acquiring nosocomial infections, turning a routine visit into a potential health hazard
02
Cardiovascular Disease Among Elders
the most prevalent issue faced by our elderly population is cardiovascular disease
Facts
The American Heart Association reports that over 70% of individuals aged 60 to 79 have some form of cardiovascular disease, and this number jumps to over 85% for those 80 and older.
