The Health Council of the Gulf Cooperation Council advised to allow the elderly to carry out some of their daily tasks due to the presence of health benefits.
The council explained that it is medically recommended that the elderly perform daily tasks that do not require high effort, such as shopping for the house, watering plants, and exercising. He indicated that these activities are characterized by their great health benefits, as they increase the level of physical activity of the individual, help stimulate memory, and improve mental abilities.
He noted that there are positive repercussions for the elderly to perform some daily tasks, including self-satisfaction, and their feeling that they are still active people in society.
