Health is a condition of being physically, socially, mentally, and emotionally well (Carstensen, 2006). Behaviour involves a collection of dealings and characteristics that individuals make within their surroundings. With this respect, health status of an individual can cause behavior change and vice versa. Carstensen (2006) provides that there are many factors that can cause behaviour change. They include age, peer group influence, and financial status just to mention but a few. Age, as a sole factor, determines physical, emotional, mental, and social characteristics of a person. This research paper deals with health behaviour change for ageing people especially those aged sixty five years and above. Physical, Emotional, Mental and Social Characteristics of Ageing People Physical Characteristics   * Biological functions slow down and reserves get depleted.   * The skin looses elasticity and becomes dry and wrinkled.   * Coldness is felt as blood supply to the skin is limited.   * The skin becomes thinner, might be prone to breaking and eventually contract infections.   * Loss of teeth, lengthening of the nose, and whitening and thinning of hair.   * Decrease in the bone mass and compression of backbone causing a bowed back.   * Loss of bone elasticity making them to become more brittle, thus increasing the chances of breaking.   * Sense of hearing, sight, taste, touch, and smell become less sensitive. The above characteristics cause discomfort and illness in old people. For example, they may lead to loss of appetite leading to poor eating habits. This may result to malnutrition, disorientation and inactivity. Lack of coordination may results in failure of the nervous system leading to wrong perception of reflex messages such as thirst, hunger, walking, chewing, and breathing. Those disorders make an aging person to isolate himself/herself from the community. This makes them to suffer from depression, lack of appetite and decreased vitality. Mental Characteristics The memory of an ageing person decreases progressively. Moreover, the ability to handle large tasks and recall them diminishes. However, the ability to learn does not decrease, for those individuals who do exercises continuously. Their short-term memory declines while long- term memory remains sharp. Mental illness in aged people is another old-age characteristic associated with infection, poor nutrition, poor medication and hydration (Australian Bureau of Statistics, 1998). Major Health problems of aged people (65 years and above) Common health problems associated with old-age are as discussed below: Incontinence Incontinence is a condition of loss of control of the bladder leading to involuntary urine leakage (Eisdorfer, 2007). It is caused by stress and urge urinary incontinences in women. According to research work done by several specialists, the urethra may fail to provide the necessary support. This usually results from the damage of the pelvic structure which occurs during childbirth. It is identified by the leakage of small amount of urine when the abdomen experiences a rise in pressure through coughing, lifting, and sneezing. Other causes include caffeine beverages, which stimulate the bladder, enlarged prostrate (in men above 40), other disorders such as injury of the spinal cord, strokes, and multiple sclerosis which interfere with the functioning of the bladder nerves (Eisdorfe
