Abstract
It has long been thought that demographic aging and its attendant implications for health and social services is primarily a problem for industrialized wealthy countries. Nothing could be further from the truth since most older persons (and an increasingly higher number) reside in low-income countries. Through a description of a home visit to older women in the small town of Gondar, Ethiopia, the general state of older persons in sub-Saharan Africa is addressed. J Am Geriatr Soc 67:2240-2244, 2019.
