Gwangju Buk-gu Yeonje Apartment's 'Dementia Prevention' Self-Program Draws Attention
We are moving beyond an aging society and are on the brink of a super-aged society. Coupled with the low birthrate phenomenon, the total population is decreasing, and by 2025, it is expected that the elderly population will account for more than 20% of the entire population of South Korea, marking the entry into a super-aged society.
In this situation, an apartment complex in the Gwangju area has attracted attention by holding its own event for the elderly.
Yeonje Jugong Apartment in Buk-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City recently held an event for dementia prevention among the elderly.
The apartment management requested assistance from the Buk-gu Public Health Center for elderly residents who had limited outdoor activities due to COVID-19 over the past few years and recently have been confined to limited activities at home due to cold weather.
With the help of experts, dementia prevention education was provided to elderly residents of the apartment through exercise methods and lifestyle habit changes.
