Senior Mobility

Senior mobility refers to the ability of older adults to move freely and safely in their environments, including walking, transferring (such as getting in and out of a chair), and using transportation. It is essential for maintaining independence, social connections, and quality of life. Factors influencing senior mobility include physical health, strength, flexibility, and environmental accessibility. Supporting senior mobility often involves exercise, adaptations like grab bars or ramps, and assistive devices. Ensuring good mobility helps seniors stay active, reduces fall risk, and promotes overall well-being.
