Longevity: The four pillars of peaceful ageing

Health, integration into the community, financial security and independence are the four indispensable pillars of peaceful ageing

The peaceful and healthy ageing movement is focused on promoting a more serene retirement and improving the quality of life of the active and older adults. To accomplish this, Life Plan Resorts presents the four main pillars on which peaceful ageing is based:

  • Health

Access to quality healthcare is a fundamental right for everyone, regardless of age. However, it becomes even more crucial as one gets older.

Maintaining physical and mental health is essential for peaceful ageing. This pillar emphasizes the importance of disease prevention and treatment, effective management of chronic conditions and promotion of a healthy lifestyle, including proper nutrition and regular physical activity and continued access to quality medical care.

  • Community integration

Social integration is also one of the crucial aspects for the mental and emotional well-being of the older adults. This pillar focuses on fostering the inclusion of the older adults in society through programs that promote social interaction, community involvement and volunteering. These initiatives help promote interactions, a sense of belonging and the active participation of older people in society.

  • Independence

Maintaining independence is crucial for healthy ageing. Its promotion is a fundamental pillar, as it aims to support the older adults in maintaining their autonomy through personalized assistance and support technologies. This includes adapting housing for safety and comfort, as well as services that enable older people to live autonomously and with dignity.

  • Financial security

Ensuring financial stability is another crucial pillar for peaceful ageing. This will be achieved through financial education programs, support for retirement planning and policies that ensure adequate and sustainable income for the older adults. This approach allows older people to live without economic worries, focusing on enjoying life.

In the same vein, it is also important to highlight and guarantee the protection of seniors against fraud through awareness programs, as well as collaborations with local authorities to ensure a safe and secure environment for all seniors.

Life Plan Resorts, an active living resort dedicated to healthy ageing, brain vitality and fun, is reinforcing its commitment to this mission by basing its entire activity on these four pillars.

“At Life Plan Resorts, we want to guarantee the well-being of the older adults by basing our entire activity on these four pillars. To this end, we will have integrated health services on-site, and we are committed to the Brain Gym, an area of the resort dedicated exclusively to promoting brain health and cognitive care.

“We also promote independent living with integrated services, and, in addition, we will also have more than 100 daily activities to promote socialization and integration for the elderly. Our focus is, above all, to ensure that the years people spend at Life Plan Resorts are the best years of our residents’ lives, providing them with a life where health, independence, financial security and community integration come together harmoniously,” comments Jack Shevel, founder and chairman of Life Plan Resorts.
