Alzheimer’s disease is the most common cause of Dementia and in the UK alone it is speculated that over 850,000 people are affected, with millions of others also affected worldwide.   It is caused by an increase in the levels of two proteins in the brain- amyloid and tau.

Preventing Falls In The Home

Preventing Falls In The Home

It has been recently reported that around half of all hospital admissions for the elderly are due to falls. 5% of those individuals will suffer from a fracture as a result of the fall. But, should falls really be considered an inevitable part of ageing? We are more likely to fall as we age as our bodies are ever-changing.

Posted on 09/08/2019

Inadequate Support In Place For Our Ageing Population

In Britain we currently have an ageing population. More people than ever are needing additional support to live independently, with someone needing the support of a nursing home. So why is this so expensive, and why are those individuals waiting for months for rooms to become available? Midlands103 Radio reported last week that there are currently 50 people waiting for an available place in a nursing home in the Midlands. This is expected to only worsen as the population of older people increases. This means that beds are being blocked in hospitals around the UK as those waiting …
