Abstract

Are you aware that 10,000 people will turn 65 years of age in the United States every day for the next 19 years? In this podcast, Dr. Toevs discusses the impact of this demographic shift on our American way of life. She examines how changes in the ratio of workers to retirees will impact the sustainability of Social Security and create a drain on resources critical to elder care. Dr. Toevs also discusses the opportunities created by emphasizing prevention, health promotion, and personal responsibility. The findings from her work on intergenerational learning and community-based support are also discussed, as well as an analysis of population demographics.
