A five-year study done by the University of Michigan National Poll on Healthy Aging (NPHA) found that around 30% of older adults feel social isolation (the number was higher during the pandemic when social distancing measures were put into place). Not only can loneliness have a detrimental psychological effect, but it can also negatively impact your physical health.
However, staying stimulated and socializing with others may be easier said than done. The good news is that by exploring your senior living options, you can improve your quality of life.
