UsabilityClassifieds.com: America Needs to Hear the Truth About Aging and Disability

As millions of baby boomers enter their 70s, 80s, and beyond, the number of older adults living with disabilities, mobility, sensory, cognitive, and daily care challenges, is skyrocketing.

But the U.S. health care system isn’t ready. That became painfully clear during the COVID-19 pandemic, when seniors with disabilities struggled to access care, and far too many paid the ultimate price.

Now, federal agencies are finally acknowledging that older adults with disabilities are a distinct population with unique needs. But recognition alone isn’t enough.

Bias in medicine is real, 82% of doctors surveyed believe people with significant disabilities have a lower quality of life,

and nearly half admit they’re reluctant to treat them. That’s not just unacceptable, it’s dangerous.

At UsabilityClassifieds.com, we put the interests of seniors and people with disabilities first. We’re independent, not controlled by corporations profiting off vulnerability.

We’ve launched a Blog to publish raw, unedited stories from real Americans.

If you’ve experienced mistreatment, price gouging, or systemic neglect, we want to hear it, and we’ll post it without filters.

It’s also a place to declutter, earn cash, and help others. If you’ve got disability-related items or daily living gear you no longer need, list them.

Promote your services. Give away items if you wish advertize them for free in the "Freebies" category.

Every listing helps someone live more comfortably, and helps you too.

Send your story to admin@usabilityclassifieds.com. Let’s make sure America hears what’s really going on.
