Positive mindset about aging in over-60s linked to better recovery after a fall

There is a strong association between an older person's view of how they are aging and how well they will physically recover after a fall. That is the finding of a new research study which is the first to suggest how important psychological factors may be in post-fall physical recovery. Falls in older adults are a major health concern because they can lead to high levels of physical disability and hospitalization, as well as affecting people's ability to live independently.
