  • Resumen

  • People living with serious mental health conditions (SMHC) are more likely to have long-term health issues at a younger age. While much is known about the health risks in this population, we don't understand as much about how aging affects everyday activities like walking up steps or bending over. This webinar will present results of a recent study which found that middle-aged adults with SMHC had physical functioning similar to that of much older people. Declining physical abilities can affect everyday life skills, independence, housing, work options, and personal goals. This presentation will discuss findings and over practical recommendations for interventions and policies.
