Abstract
Due to the dramatic demographic shifts occurring in the composition of the population, an increase in the average life expectancy, the need has arisen for new principles of treatment and preventive services for the population, taking into account the characteristics of an aging organism.
Gerontologists adopted an age classification, according to which the age up to 40 - 45 years old is considered young, from 45 to 60 years old - average, from 60 to 75 - old, from 75 to 90 - old. People over 90 years old are considered long-lived.
One of the most characteristic features of the global aging of the population of the planet is the pronounced growth of people 75 years and older in the population of the elderly. Experts of the WHO Committee point out that “the problem is not only that the population grows, but also that its further“ aging ”is noted as the number of people living longer grows. The group of “elderly” creates additional difficulties for the health and social services.
This article describes the relevance and methods of providing neuro-orthopedic rehabilitation to elderly people in gerontological centers.
