KOTA KINABALU: While elderly care and rehabilitation are well established in Peninsular Malaysia, many of Sabah’s seniors still struggle to access basic physiotherapy and geriatric services - a gap that health professionals say must be addressed as the state’s ageing population grows.
Sabah Physiotherapy Association (SPA) president Herman Nantharao Sannasy said the disparity was most evident in rural areas, where awareness and access to rehabilitation remain limited.
