Abstract:
The Baby Boomer generation (born 1946-1964) faces unique public health challenges as they age, including increased rates of chronic conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and arthritis, along with barriers to healthcare access. Reproductive health issues, such as menopause, sexual health, and hormone regulation, further complicate their needs, often going unaddressed due to stigma or lack of resources. Social work is crucial in addressing these challenges by advocating for equitable healthcare policies, providing education on aging-related health issues, and connecting Baby Boomers to essential services. Social workers ensure comprehensive care that supports physical, mental, and emotional well-being. By addressing these multifaceted health concerns, public health efforts in social work can improve the overall quality of life for Baby Boomers.
