Home Instead Survey Shows Self-Care Linked to Older Adult Happiness and Wellbeing
New research finds physical self-care and caregiver support boost confidence, mood and emotional wellbeing as people age.
90% of older adults say self-care has a positive impact on their day-to-day lifestyle.
Older adults who practice daily grooming or beauty routines report higher rates of happiness than those who don’t.
A new survey by Home Instead, an Honor company, and the world’s leading provider of in-home care for older adults, finds that physical self-care routines play a key role in supporting confidence, happiness, and emotional wellbeing among adults aged 65 and older, while highlighting the critical support caregivers provide in helping maintain these routines.
