Disables Seniors - Getting Physical with Physical Disabilities
Currently, over 1 billion people live with disabilities. According to an article by CDC, about 15% of the world's population has these types of disabling conditions.
Almost half of the elderly population, ages 60 and over have reported moderate to severe disability. These include hearing, vision, cognition, mobility, self-care, and independent living complications. 61 million adults in the U.S. have at least one of these disabilities. That’s roughly 1 in 4 adults that experience these everyday setbacks. It’s safe to say you are not alone in this.

Mobility is the most commonly reported complication, with 1 in 7 in older adults. But don’t worry, there are endless amounts of resources and help for seniors with disabilities that can be used to improve the obstacles in everyday living activities.
