Mobility is important to seniors since being able to move around without pain allows them to have independence in doing their personal tasks and enjoy their hobbies. But due to ageing in their muscles and bones which may result to certain conditions such as osteoarthritis, it narrows the scope of their movement and leads to higher chances of falls. Further, older adults who face mobility issues are at risk of social isolation and loneliness impacting their mental and emotional health. Hence, providing them with mobility assistance is important to ensure their independence and safety at all times.
Further, here are some effective ways to improve mobility among the elderly:
- Doing stretching exercises such as yoga, tai chi or light jogging can help enhance their flexibility, balance and coordination
- Eating healthily by avoiding processed foods, instead consuming more fruits, vegetables, lean meats, and whole grains
- Installing railings and ramps to make it easier for them to move around their homes
