Health and Wellness in an Aging Society Chapter 1 Copyright © 2016 by Elsevier, Inc. All rights reserved. Health and Wellness in an Aging Society

Health Perspectives In medicine, absence of physical and psychiatric illness Measured in terms of accepted “norms” Function independently versus debility Population health status considerations are based on life expectancy, morbidity, and mortality Copyright © 2016 by Elsevier, Inc. All rights reserved.

Considerations Does defining health based on illness reflect: quality of life? functional limitations? contributions to community/society? movement toward self-actualization? Health is more than the absence of disease Copyright © 2016 by Elsevier, Inc. All rights reserved.

Healthy People 2020: Older Adults New areas focus on quality of life and wellness of the older adult Social well-being is recognized as an important aspect of mental health A wellness model based on a holistic paradigm is changing the perceptions of health and health care Copyright © 2016 by Elsevier, Inc. All rights reserved.

Gerontological Nurses Can shape the world of persons where they can thrive and grow old, not merely survive Wellness-based models whether acute or chronic: Maximize strengths Minimize limitations Facilitate adaptation Encourage growth Copyright © 2016 by Elsevier, Inc. All rights reserved.

Health Perspectives The Years Ahead While countries vary, persons over the age of 60 worldwide will double in 2050 The majority will be women Most of the elders worldwide will be poor and in need of support How can global conditions be changed to maximize and enrich the lives of elders across the world?

Health Perspectives Aging  The term geriatrics was coined to recognize that medical care of persons in later life differed from other groups in the population  The first medical textbook about the “old” was published in 1914 with the focus that it must be reversed, eradicated, or delayed  Gerontology considers the nexus of time and human development Copyright © 2016 by Elsevier, Inc.

Health Perspectives (Cont.) How Old Is Old? Each culture is different and a variety of terms are used to refer to the aging person: elder, senior citizen, granny, older adult, etc. From a functional perspective, it’s when the person is no longer able to perform usual activities Biological aging: outward expression of individual genetic makeup Chronological aging: varies around the world, but generally around 50-65 years As the average life expectancy rises this may change Copyright © 2016 by Elsevier, Inc.

Health Perspectives Super-Centenarians Those that are still alive at 110 years of age There are 200-300 worldwide, with 60 of those in the United States Survived outbreaks and pandemic diseases It is theorized that the reason these individuals have survived to this point is “rare and unpredictable” Copyright © 2016 by Elsevier, Inc.

Health Perspectives (Cont.) Centenarians Those between the ages of 100 and 109 years Many people who would be of that age today died in WWII, were part of the Great Depression, and lived during the smallpox epidemic and other childhood diseases This age group is rising rapidly New research is identifying that genetic markers for disease are not activated until later in life for this group Copyright © 2016 by Elsevier, Inc.

Health Perspectives (Cont.) The “Baby Boomers”  Youngest of the older generation, born between 1946 and 1964  The greatest number were born in 1946, when WWII ended  Great variation in life experiences among this group  Better access to medication and treatment  Immunizations became a standard of care from 1960 on, when the eldest boomer was 13 years old Copyright © 2016 by Elsevier, Inc.
