Abstract

Health problems among the elderly will occur if their healthy-living needs are not met or achievable. The implications, if left unchecked, can affect the patients’ quality of life and lead to them suffering from social dysfunction. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to discuss the factors that cause the elderly to be bedridden and the possible risks arising from this problem.
