Social aspects of aging

The McMaster Optimal Aging Portal is excited to offer citizens a more comprehensive evidence source through the addition of evidence-based content about the social aspects of aging. This new content (featuring topics such as civic engagement, consumer protection, and transportation) complements the high-quality information already provided about the health aspects of aging. The broader range of content on the McMaster Optimal Aging Portal will better support citizens in making informed decisions as they age.

Many of our Blog Posts were written before the COVID-19 pandemic and thus do not necessarily reflect the latest public health recommendations. While the content of new and old blogs identify activities that support optimal aging, it is important to defer to the most current public health recommendations. Some of the activities suggested within these blogs may need to be modified or avoided altogether to comply with changing public health recommendations.
