Introduction
· Signs of ageing
· Economic changes and Financial requirements
· Depression and dementia strikes
· Cutting out the social life
Ageing is a natural process and part of life, which can be seen, in the human body after the age of 45. Ageing is an irremediable process and has its effects on the skin, hair and other body organs of a human being. This continuous process keeps on going until death. There are a number of serious effects that ageing conducts in the lives of an individual. Among all these impacts of ageing, the most prominent changes can be seen in the sector of finance for an individual.
The financial constraint occurs in the case of older people as there are no regular jobs available for these people. Moreover, this leads older people to cut their social lives out as sometimes they feel unwanted and worthless. As a result, the psychological changes at this age are also coming into occurrence especially for the older people. In this case study, it has been the showcase that the elderly couple Shirley and Peter despite their problems living a happy life at their own.
Perspectives of Peter and Shirley and Course of Action from these Aspects
· The elderly couple is suffering from deafness and they are reluctant to wear hearing aids
· Peter is self-dependent and financially independent at this age

On the other hand, Peter and Shirley both are suffering from deafness and are reluctant to use hearing aids, which is making their life more difficult.

· Disengagement process is acquired to protect the personal image
· Lack of social activities
The disengagement theory has been introduced by Elaine Cumming and William Earle Henry in the year 1961. This theory denotes the notion of ageing and emphasizes on the fact that at the old age the elderly people withdraw themselves from participating in any kind of social activities. Therefore, this results in losing the people of the surroundings. In order to maintain the personal image in this stage, the elderly people disengage themselves from society and gets detached from the people. This results in low spirits, desolation and pessimism in lives for these persons.
Social Exchange Theory of Aging
· Imbalanced relationship between elderly people and society
· Feeling of dejection
· Pursuit of rewards
· Financial support
The social exchange theory suggests the fact that the healthy interaction between elderly people and other members of society is important. Through this process, the people with old age can be able to exchange their...
