Oregon's population over age 85 is growing significantly and projected to increase further by 2030, with most residing in the Portland area, placing greater demands on long-term care. As demographics shift, 19% of Jewish Americans are already over age 65 compared to 13% of the general public, and both elders and their families prefer independence, choice, and aging in place to traditional long-term care facilities.

Stereotyping people based on appearance, culture, preferences, or attributes is inaccurate and unfair, as there is no single face of HIV. The HIV rate has doubled in the last decade in Queensland and affects a broader range of people through various means of contraction, so making assumptions about someone's health status from superficial attributes promotes discrimination that does not align with the reality that HIV does not discriminate.
Pol 195 policy brief
This policy brief examines the challenges facing elderly women and affordable housing in California. As the state's population ages, women will represent a larger share of seniors due to longer life expectancy. Elderly women are more vulnerable than men as they tend to have less retirement savings from lower lifetime earnings and careers interrupted by caregiving. They are also more likely to be single or widowed. The brief calls for increased housing assistance programs to help seniors age in place and recognizes the contributions of elderly women through unpaid caregiving work.

NCM 114-LESSON 1 AND 2.pptx
This document provides an overview of theories of aging, including both stochastic and nonstochastic theories. Stochastic theories view aging as resulting from random assaults from the internal and external environment, such as the cross-linking theory, free radical theory, and lipofuscin theory. Nonstochastic theories see aging changes resulting from a complex, predetermined process. The document discusses various biological theories of aging, including wear and tear theories which attribute aging to the repeated use and injury of the body over time.
Aging Demographics
This document discusses global population aging trends. It notes that the number of people aged 65 and over will outnumber children under age 5 within 5 years, representing a major demographic shift. By 2050, those aged 65+ are projected to reach nearly 1.5 billion people, or 16% of the global population, up from 524 million (8%) in 2010. This aging is driven by increased life expectancy and decreased fertility rates. Most rapid aging is occurring in developing countries, posing challenges to health systems and economies.

It addresses common questions and concerns seniors have around dating again, their appearance and sexuality as they age, and the benefits of sex and relationships for older adults.

1) Older adults are situated differently in society based on factors like race, gender, and income level. As the population ages, it will become more racially diverse.
2) When responding to the needs of older adults, neither colorblind universal policies nor targeted policies alone are adequate, as universal policies may not address unique needs and targeted policies can be seen as favoring some groups over others.
3) An approach called "targeted universalism" is needed, which acknowledges disparities, proposes solutions for marginalized groups, and broadens the scope to cover more people, recognizing our shared fate. We must rethink how social structures can better support all older adults.
The World’s Population is Aging
When someone argues that the world’s population is getting older, a few will contradict the statement. They might say that Millennials (those born between 1980 and the mid-90s) outnumber the older generation. In certain ways, they’re right. A report from 2010 states that Millennial workers comprised 25 percent of the world population.

Adult Stages: Older Adult (65 to 85 Years)
Aging in America
The first of the baby boomer generation born between 1946 and 1964 is reaching age 65 and many are facing economic uncertainty and spiraling health care costs. As the older population grows, their personal, social, and health care needs will be felt in all our lives. The young and middle-age adults that we discussed earlier in this chapter will comprise the older population of 2050 and beyond.
Following are some personal characteristics of the older population and their potential impact on health and nutrition services:
• Increase in life expectancy: Life expectancy is a general measure of the overall health of a population.40 Over the past century, life expectancy at birth rose significantly based on improved sanitation, the discovery of antibiotics, and higher standards of living (Figure 13-4). Better prevention and treatment of heart disease, cancer, and stroke, the most common causes of death in older adults, has contributed to longer life expectancies. Sixty-five-year-olds can expect to live another 19 years, and 85-year-olds another 6 to 7 years.40 Those 85 and older are the fastest growing age cohort in the United States and will double in number over the next 25 years.
FIGURE 13-4 Life expectancy is increasing among older adults. Men age 65 can expect to live 17 more years and women age 65 can expect to live 20 more years. At age 85, older adults can expect to live another 6 to 7 years. (Data from Federal Interagency Forum on Aging-Related Statistics: Older Americans 2012: key indicators of well-being, Washington, D.C., 2012, U.S. Government Printing Office.)
• Ethnic and racial diversity: Currently, 80% of the population above age 64 is Caucasian, but this will change. By 2050, 42% of the older U.S. population will be Asian, Hispanic, or African American (Figure 13-5).40 Nutrition education programs and meal services will need to adjust to different customs, food patterns, and family roles. Growing diversity is also promoting greater interest in complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). (See the Focus on Culture box, “Cultural and Ethnic Differences in Health Practices” for related discussion.)

Ageism Where It Comes From And What It Does
The document discusses the global aging population trends, challenges, and efforts to address them. Some key points:
- The number of older adults has almost quintupled in the last 65 years and is projected to continue growing significantly, with 1 in 6 people globally being over 65 by 2050.
- Population aging is driven by increased life expectancy but presents challenges for health systems, economies, and societies. It can also exacerbate issues like poverty, discrimination, and abuse among older groups.
- In response, the UN and WHO are spearheading a Decade of Healthy Aging to optimize older adults' abilities and independence through initiatives like combating ageism, creating age-friendly communities, improving care access, and
A Picture Of Health
The document discusses several factors that influence population health status, including politics, economics, geography, lifestyle, culture, health care services, education, and demography. It also discusses differences in health issues between developing and developed nations, such as higher rates of communicable diseases and infant mortality in developing countries versus higher rates of chronic diseases in developed countries. Predictions for the 21st century include potential rises in infectious diseases and chronic illnesses due to longer lifespans and urbanization. Mortality rates in infancy and childhood are predicted to decline substantially, though most deaths will still occur in developing areas. Global population is expected to grow to 8 billion by 2025 with increases in life expectancy and numbers of elderly people.

Preface
The world is facing a situation without precedent: We soon will have more older people than
children and more people at extreme old age than ever before. As both the proportion of older
people and the length of life increase throughout the world, key questions arise. Will population
aging be accompanied by a longer period of good health, a sustained sense of well-being, and
extended periods of social engagement and productivity, or will it be associated with more illness,
disability, and dependency? How will aging affect health care and social costs? Are these futures
inevitable, or can we act to establish a physical and social infrastructure that might foster better
health and wellbeing in older age? How will population aging play out differently for low-income
countries that will age faster than their counterparts have, but before they become industrialized
and wealthy?
This brief report attempts to address some of these questions. Above all, it emphasizes the central
role that health will play moving forward. A better understanding of the changing relationship
between health with age is crucial if we are to create a future that takes full advantage of the
powerful resource inherent in older populations. To do so, nations must develop appropriate
data systems and research capacity to monitor and understand these patterns and relationships,

ways to maintain healthful life styles and everyday functioning in countries at different stages of
economic development and with varying resources. Global efforts are required to understand and

existing knowledge about the prevention and treatment of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and
cancer.
Managing population aging also requires building needed infrastructure and institutions as soon as
possible. The longer we delay, the more costly and less effective the solutions are likely to be.
Population aging is a powerful and transforming demographic force. We are only just beginning
to comprehend its impact ...
NASW Poster 2
This document discusses issues facing LGBT seniors. It notes that approximately 3.5% of U.S. adults identify as LGBT, with at least 1.5 million being over age 65. However, many LGBT elders avoid medical care due to fears of discrimination. As a result, LGBT seniors often receive inadequate care and have worse health outcomes than non-LGBT seniors. The document calls for policy changes like mandatory LGBT cultural competency training for all medical professionals, in order to improve healthcare access and quality for the aging LGBT population.
2015: How Do We Move Toward More Culturally Competent Care?-Aleman
This document discusses how to move toward more culturally competent care. It defines culture and cultural competence. To achieve cultural competence, one must value diversity, acknowledge different ways of communicating and behaving across cultures, and have an understanding and tolerance of other cultures. The document then provides demographic statistics on the growing racial and ethnic diversity of the older American population, including the rates of chronic conditions reported among African Americans, Hispanics, Asians, and Native Americans. It emphasizes that the aging population is becoming more racially and ethnically diverse.
Aging With Choice
This document discusses the need for planning long-term care for aging parents and seniors. It notes that 7 out of 10 seniors will require long-term care, yet fewer than 10% make plans. It promotes Senior Helpers, an in-home care agency that can help educate families on options and resources to pay for senior care. They work to protect assets and allow seniors to stay in their homes. The agency is owned by Terry Bollons, an expert who can help navigate insurance, benefits, and selecting caregivers to pay for care without losing lifetime savings.

1) Americans are living longer due to increased life expectancy. This is known as the "graying of America".
2) The study of aging and older people is called gerontology.
3) Differences in class, gender, and race divide older Americans into "haves" and "have-nots", with minority groups facing greater poverty and health issues.
Ready for Prime Time: Older Adults Make Their Mark at MoMA - Francesca Rosenb...
The document discusses the growing population of older adults worldwide and in the United States. It aims to dispel common myths about older adults. Some key points:
- The global population of those over age 60 will reach over 1 billion within the next decade and double to over 2 billion by 2050.
- By 2050, those over age 65 will outnumber children globally for the first time in history.
- Contrary to myths, most older adults are in good health, financially secure, and a growing consumer market. Only a small percentage live in nursing homes and nearly half rate their health as excellent or very good. Those over 50 will control 70% of disposable income by 2017.

This document discusses aging and senior citizens in India, with a focus on women. Some key points:
- India has a large and growing elderly population, projected to be over 300 million by 2050. Many elderly face poverty, illiteracy, lack of employment opportunities, and health issues.
- Elderly women especially face challenges as they are more likely to be widowed and less educated than men. Many live alone or in nuclear families with limited support.
- Common problems elderly Indians face include poverty, illiteracy, lack of employment, dependency on others, health issues, physical disabilities, abuse, and neglect. Diseases like dementia are also increasing.
- The document shares statistics on the elderly

The world is facing a situation without precedent: We soon will have more older people than
children and more people at extreme old age than ever before. As both the proportion of older
people and the length of life increase throughout the world, key questions arise. Will population
aging be accompanied by a longer period of good health, a sustained sense of well-being, and
extended periods of social engagement and productivity, or will it be associated with more illness,
disability, and dependency? How will aging affect health care and social costs? Are these futures
inevitable, or can we act to establish a physical and social infrastructure that might foster better
health and wellbeing in older age? How will population aging play out differently for low-income
countries that will age faster than their counterparts have, but before they become industrialized
and wealthy?
This brief report attempts to address some of these questions. Above all, it emphasizes the central
role that health will play moving forward. A better understanding of the changing relationship
between health with age is crucial if we are to create a future that takes full advantage of the
powerful resource inherent in older populations. To do so, nations must develop appropriate
data systems and research capacity to monitor and understand these patterns and relationships,

well-being. And research needs to be better coordinated if we are to discover the most cost-effective
ways to maintain healthful life styles and everyday functioning in countries at different stages of
economic development and with varying resources. Global efforts are required to understand and

existing knowledge about the prevention and treatment of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and
cancer.
Managing population aging also requires building needed infrastructure and institutions as soon as
possible. The longer we delay, the more costly and less effective the solutions are likely to be.
Population aging is a powerful and transforming demographic force. We are only just beginning
to comprehend its impact ...

This document discusses issues facing LGBT seniors. It notes that approximately 3.5% of U.S. adults identify as LGBT, with at least 1.5 million being over age 65. However, many LGBT elders avoid medical care due to fears of discrimination. As a result, LGBT seniors often receive inadequate care and have worse health outcomes than non-LGBT seniors. The document calls for policy changes like mandatory LGBT cultural competency training for all medical professionals, in order to improve healthcare access and quality for the aging LGBT population.
2015: How Do We Move Toward More Culturally Competent Care?-Aleman
This document discusses how to move toward more culturally competent care. It defines culture and cultural competence. To achieve cultural competence, one must value diversity, acknowledge different ways of communicating and behaving across cultures, and have an understanding and tolerance of other cultures. The document then provides demographic statistics on the growing racial and ethnic diversity of the older American population, including the rates of chronic conditions reported among African Americans, Hispanics, Asians, and Native Americans. It emphasizes that the aging population is becoming more racially and ethnically diverse.
Aging With Choice
This document discusses the need for planning long-term care for aging parents and seniors. It notes that 7 out of 10 seniors will require long-term care, yet fewer than 10% make plans. It promotes Senior Helpers, an in-home care agency that can help educate families on options and resources to pay for senior care. They work to protect assets and allow seniors to stay in their homes. The agency is owned by Terry Bollons, an expert who can help navigate insurance, benefits, and selecting caregivers to pay for care without losing lifetime savings.

The document discusses the growing population of older adults worldwide and in the United States. It aims to dispel common myths about older adults. Some key points:
- The global population of those over age 60 will reach over 1 billion within the next decade and double to over 2 billion by 2050.
- By 2050, those over age 65 will outnumber children globally for the first time in history.
- Contrary to myths, most older adults are in good health, financially secure, and a growing consumer market. Only a small percentage live in nursing homes and nearly half rate their health as excellent or very good. Those over 50 will control 70% of disposable income by 2017.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
