Activities of Daily Living (ADL) Innovation towards Sustainable Quality of Life for the Elderly

Abstract

Concerns about ageing relate not only to the size of the elderly population but also to their health, well-being, care, and living arrangements. This paper explores articles and journals to discover concepts, definitions, and issues related to activities of daily living for an ageing population in Malaysia. The content analysis will inform future in-depth interviews and demonstrative evidence to examine the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) towards the concept of Aging in Place as an independent lifestyle. The result will provide a practical solution for ADL aids that can be used by the elderly towards a better quality of life.
