The event, organized by the Faculty of Health Sciences of our university and the Vocational School of Health Services, attracted great attention. Making the opening speech of the event, Deputy Dean of the Faculty of Health Sciences Assoc. Dr. Elif Karahan said that elderly individuals should integrate with the society, be more active and be committed to life.


Karahan said, “Old age, which has a different meaning and importance for each person, is not only a biological process, but also a special period of our lives that is affected by social and cultural values. Along with getting older, individuals themselves and other members of the society should be aware of the change. In this period, individuals can control their emotions better and guide their surroundings with their knowledge and experience. Our elders; They are our only values that transfer the experiences of our past to the present and enable us to carry our national culture and values to the future. Old age requires dignity. It is also a debt of gratitude.”
