Chronic isolation is a significant risk for seniors and can lead to serious health conditions, including heart disease and dementia. In fact, a study from AARP even found that a lack of social contacts among older adults is associated with $6.7 billion in additional Medicare spending. One of the best ways to combat isolation is through socialization, which can support a healthier state of mind, both mentally and emotionally. Understanding why seniors become isolated helps to identify what types of support seniors will benefit from 

Reasons For Isolation

Lack of adequate transportation: The loss of a driver's license hinders many seniors immensely while a loss of mobility can even keep seniors from taking advantage of many forms of public transportation. It's not that transportation is not ADAAA compliant, but many seniors can no longer get to the bus stop or metro station in the first place. Also, cognitive or emotional challenges can make following a transportation schedule quite impossible. For this reason, Comfort Keepers provides local transportation support as an add-on service.  

Social situations have become incredibly stressful: Many times seniors do not understand why nobody seems to make sense anymore. Things don't sound right or look right. Too often, seniors who feel this way may be experiencing age-related degeneration including vision and hearing loss. Seniors often do not keep up with their vision checks and even fewer have their hearing checked regularly if at all. Yet, with a new pair of glasses or the support of a hearing aid, seniors can avoid isolation and re-enter their social circle with confidence. 

Seniors may feel uncomfortable or even embarrassed by age-related degeneration such as a loss of mobility, incontinence issues, or chronic pain. Sometimes, they may be afraid that they will be mocked for "getting old", and other times they are afraid of falling, getting hurt, or ending up in a location that has too many stairs, is without a bathroom, etc.
