What is the actual challenge behind the demographic shift - the growing number of older adults or #ageism? Just reread this paper on the economic costs of ageism in healthcare. It runs into billions. And it can and should be prevented. https://t.co/VhyZZgi
@SEHealth_SEHC is excited to partner with @ILCCanada and others to combat ageism in Canada and internationally. Ageism costs $63B USD annually for 8 most expensive health conditions and prevents us from living our best lives https://t.co/I2W17EivR3

Yale professor Becca Levy conducted a longitudinal study that analyzed discrimination toward older adults & negative self-perceptions of aging. They learned that 1 year of ageism was linked to 17 million+ cases of adverse health conditions. #ageism htt
