Social health indicators promoting quality of life for the older people in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Despite the current strengths in social health, anticipated demographic changes are expected to significantly increase the number of older people in the coming years. This highlights the need for proactive policy interventions. The study recommends strengthening family‑based support through community initiatives, expanding access to institutional care, and promoting intergenerational awareness to ensure sustainable well‑being and dignity for older people in Saudi society.
