As individuals with Cerebral Palsy age, they may experience changes in their physical and overall health, including increased fatigue, pain, or challenges with mobility. Ageing well with CP involves proactive Health management, including staying active, maintaining a balanced diet, and accessing regular medical care tailored to their needs.
It is also important to plan for evolving Support requirements and connect with Resources and Communities that understand the unique aspects of living with CP as we age. In this video from the Center for Developmental Disabilities Evaluation and Research [United States], Dr. Julie Moran discusses common and secondary conditions associated with CP that can occur as people age.
