Abstract

As the world's population grows, the quality of life of older people has become a major worry for lawmakers and health care workers. Healthcare education is a big factor in the quality of life of older people because it can have a big effect on their health behaviours, decisions, and general well-being. This study looks into how teaching older people about all aspects of health care can improve their quality of life, especially for those in sensitive age groups. The study looks at how customised training programs that focus on age-related health issues, preventative measures, and lifestyle changes can give adults the power to take charge of their health and confidently deal with the challenges of getting older. A variety of older people who took part in an organised healthcare education program were asked to fill out both qualitative and quantitative surveys as part of a mixed-methods study. The paper discussed about common health problems that come with getting older, such as heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, and memory loss. It also suggested that people take care of their physical and mental health by eating right, working out, and dealing with stress. Before and after the treatment, the people's quality of life was measured using normal tools that looked at physical, mental, and social factors. People who took part in the whole healthcare education program said that their physical health, mental health, and social lives all got a lot better. People were also happy with their lives, their health care costs went down, and they were better able to handle their own health problems. Findings show that giving older people more control, making their quality of life better, and maybe even lowering the need for healthcare services rest a lot on how much they know about it. According to this study, individual training programs should be used a lot as an important part of healthcare plans for older people.
