The Elderly Challenge

The four key recommendations are:
1.Elderly-friendly housing
2.More accessible transport for the elderly
3.Increased care for elders
4.Increased opportunity for elders

The CAI are recommending a bigger variety of housing options to cater to the needs of the elderly.

We can lower the cost of the care-taking services, and make their services more efficient.

As SST students, we can do more volunteer work, and be more friendly to the elderly, and lastly help in the construction of elderly-friendly equipment.
