Determinants of Healthy Aging
The Determinants of Heathy Aging are seven determinants where Healthy Aging programs can make the greatest impact: Social Connection, Healthy Eating, Physical Activity, Mental Wellness, Transportation, Navigation & Access to Supports, and Safety & Security.
These determinants strongly influence wellbeing as we grow older. The selected determinants are informed by research evidence and established healthy aging frameworks. They build on the broader concept of social determinants of health, which highlight how social and economic factors shape health. The Determinants of Healthy Aging for the CBSS sector translate this evidence into concepts that are practical for our work.
