Problem/Solution

Problem: Social Isolation & Loneliness leads to:

  • higher morbidity and mortality rates.

  • worse health outcomes than obesity, drinking alcohol, and/or smoking.

  • adults being more vulnerable to abuse or neglect by themselves or others.

Loneliness is: “a biological response (e.g. like hunger, thirst or pain) that has evolved to ensure we seek out meaningful social connections with others and belong to social groups...This social connectedness is necessary for our wellbeing and survival...  http://www.alternet.org/personal-health/dying-company-social-isolation-increases-death-r

Loneliness differs from social isolation, which is the objective absence of social contacts and social connectednessGoodman, Adams, and Swift, 2015, p.5).
