America’s seniors are lonely. And, as a nation, we’ve allowed them to fall into the shadows. Families are living farther away and neighbors are more strangers than ever before. We all have the power to help change that.
That’s why Meals on Wheels America, along with celebrity supporters, has launched the #RespectYourElders campaign to garner support for America’s aging population and raise awareness for the importance of honoring seniors nationwide.
One of the many benefits of living in a senior living community is the sense of belonging and friendship that residents experience.
Living in isolation, alone at home, does little to prevent depression. The community environment of assisted and independent living communities provides daily opportunities for socialization, education, exercise and physical activity, recreation, and relationships.
This lifestyle encourages seniors to enjoy life and provides companionship, support, and connections with other people who share many of the same experiences, helping to prevent depression.
