Abstract
Policies regarding family health and other socio-economic decisions that shape social life directly affect the individual in the long term, together with cultural influences. Decisions in light of global developments can cause one generation's retirement life to be different from another. Many factors, such as changing economies, growing businesses, urbanization, migration, and employment policies, determine the time individuals spend in business and how the rest of their lives will pass afterward. As a result of the interaction of social, economic, and psychological factors, social well-being must be well managed for individuals over a certain age to feel useful without being isolated from society and to maintain their ties with life despite various diseases. From this point of view, attention is drawn to the increase in isolated deaths, and the management of this situation with tools such as family health strategies is mentioned in this chapter.
