            Thus, this finding also leads us to meditate on this vulnerability in its various
            expressions.
                Many  studies  reported  that  this  population  suffers  from  a  glaring  lack
            security, only 20% of seniors have a social and medical insurance. "Few of them
            have access to care in the presence of physical and financial dependence that
            increases with time, in a context where the support of these persons within the
            family is threatened, including many societal changes which the increasing
            number of nuclear households illustrates, "the EESC in 2015.

                Furthermore, the results of (ENPA) revealed that almost two thirds (59.1%)
            of these people said they did not have the means. This proportion is higher
            among  relatively  Disadvantaged  populations,  it  represents  in  rural  areas
            (62.1%) and women (62.8%) while in urban areas (55.2%) and men (55.1 %).
                The non-use of health care, once the person is ill, is higher in rural (62.1%)
            than  the  urban  areas  (55.2%),  particularly  among  women  (62.8%).  This
            difference between the two areas is due, among others, to the uneven spatial
            distribution of healthcare services. Moreover, the hospitals suffer from a lack
            of specialized geriatric structures that take into account the peculiarities of the
            elderly.
                Indeed,  the  current  situation  reveals  failures  in  the  health  system  in
            Morocco, among others, the weakness of medical coverage. The elderly are
            the first to suffer.
                4.3. Retirement a major challenge to overcome

                The transition from working life to retirement affects an entire system of
            life  of  older  people  whose  financial  resources  (pensions)  are  an  important
            component especially through some representations based on the existential
            security and survival of this fringe in conditions worthy of a human.
                Like many countries, to varying degrees more or less advanced, Morocco
            is experiencing a significant increase in its population aged 60 and over, while
            it represented 9.6% in 2014 of the total population, its share should increase
            by half by 2020 to get to a Moroccan out of four over 60 years in 2050.
                Therefore, several questions rise through the rate of the social coverage
            (retirement)  for  our  elders  and  the  quality  value  and  the  persistence  of
            pensions  and  their  collection  modes.  Furthermore,  16%  of  the  Moroccans
            aged  60  and  older  reported  receiving  a  retirement  pension  with  a  clear
            dichotomy in the two sexes because women are the most penalized by this
            system.  Just  3%  of  women  benefit  versus  30.4%  of  men.  Otherwise,  the
            physical and financial dependence increases, in a context in which taking care
            of these persons within the family is threatened, particularly by the increasing
            number of nuclear households. The emergence of some specific centers for
