“Aging and health” was the theme for this year’s World Health Day 2012, an annual invitation for nations around the world to focus on a single health issue that has global impact. Specifically, this year’s focus is the idea that "good health adds life to years" and how health throughout life can help older men and women lead full and productive lives and be a resource for their families and communities.

LeadingAge expanded on this topic and discussed the “Age Wave” and how technology will be one way to care for the growing population of older adults, here in the U.S., and around the world! Read the article here.
