Italy Faces Surge in Nonagenarians

The number of Italians aged 90 and above is projected to reach one million within the next three years, according to recent reports from local media

This demographic shift underscores the urgent need for enhanced elderly care services in the country.

Citing data from Italia Longeva, the national association for aging and active longevity established by the Ministry of Health, the state news agency ANSA revealed that one-third of Italy’s population will soon be over the age of 65. Many of these individuals are expected to live alone, increasing their risk of social isolation.

The anticipated rise in the elderly population highlights a pressing demand for home care services. It is estimated that around six million older Italians will live alone and face the threat of isolation over the next two decades.

This demographic trend poses significant challenges for Italy’s healthcare system and social services, which must adapt to support an aging population while ensuring their well-being and social inclusion.
