Aging! We are all aware of, is the fair or poor health conditions that occurred in the 50s or the early
The 60s respectively. However, a few in their 80s live like those in their 30s, need not much attention and
care. Study shows that 52% of people turning age 65 will need some type of long-term care in their
lifetimes. This figure could vary, depending upon the climate and other health-related issues or
activities.

Keeping in mind this scenario, some of the older adults can manage their activities and health
conditions at their best while others with low immune systems, metabolic syndrome/disorders show
their worst to manage them in their healthy aging.

This is where an old age home comes in contact! At this point, adults who become more
problematic with their behavior, mental health, and body conditions, are sent to old age homes. This
may not be true in some cases but according to the research, Only 4.5 percent (about 1.5 million) of
older adults live in nursing homes and 2 percent (1 million) in assisted living facilities. The majority
of older adults (93.5 percent, or 33.4 million) live in the community.

This shows that most people opt to live in old-age homes on their own OR are sent to old-age
homes by their families. Where some live happily while others lose their lives thirsting for the love of
their children and grandchildren!

Keeping an eye on the gradual increase in poor aging, Primary Care of Telfair Sugar Land, Texas
pays its services to the older adults of the United States and gives respect to the rest of the aging
people whom it can't reach or connect.
