Louise Casey: England’s social care system faces ‘moment of reckoning’

Head of government-commissioned review says adult social care is held together by ‘sticking plasters and glue’

Absolutely delusional. Mango Mussolini starts a #war with #Iran by taking out a big chunk of their leadership structure. And now he says he gets to approve who gets to be their next leader.

It's war, you #moron. They don't report to you, no matter how hard you imagine being Boss of the Whole World. If you want them to obey your orders, you have to get them to #surrender first, and that ain't gonna happen. You can do whatever you like, but the absolute most you will accomplish is creating another insurgency you can't suppress in a country that has great reason to hate your guts. You won't be able to contain it without putting millions of American soldiers into that country, *forever*.

So ya, it's either a forever war, or another grade-A clusterfuck from the same folks who brought you #Afghanistan and #Iraq 2.0, along with other supporting features.

Exclusive: Trump says he must be involved in picking Iran's next leader

"Khamenei's son is unacceptable to me. We want someone that will bring harmony and peace to Iran."

I spent years teaching neurology residents that once cognitive decline begins, nothing can reverse it.

A 20-year NIH trial just proved me wrong.

The ACTIVE study — the largest cognitive training RCT ever conducted — found that just 10 hours of "speed of processing" brain training reduced dementia risk by 25% over two decades.

2,802 adults aged 65+. Only 5-6 weeks of training plus brief boosters. Twenty years ...

If you have encountered problems with Paramed Home Support Services please send me a reply or contact me through a private message.
I am fed up with their awful scheduling, endless excuses for failing to meet appointed times, or failing to show up altogether. I need to hear from others about their experiences--confidentiality guaranteed !! Clients are needlessly suffering.
Paramed, owned by Extendicare, secured contracts with provinces and need to fulfil their promised services and contracts, but are wasting taxpayers dollars with their careless and irresponsible management.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thanks.

@glynmoody it is interesting, in that expecting that a virus which rampages in one part of the nervous system wouldn't leave some harm in assorted places - in addition to decreased reserve etc - was in retrospect rather optimistic.
And now we begin to realise that lurking viruses may produce multiple sclerosis, and forms of #dementia.

And that we can #immunise against them.

The horror of the #zombie apocalypses is a disease controlling the host to spread itself.

And we are plagued by memes.

I did this podcast -- Resilient Aging -- about my father's #dementia (early-onset #Alzheimers) with #neurologist, #psychologist Dr. Dani Cabral, and it was released today. If you have a few minutes and can take a listen, please do. And if you do, I hope you find it helpful.

Americans alarmed by the #deaths of 4 #US service members might have been expecting a formal presidential address from the White House. Instead, they are observing a president treating this like every other day: talking about his #ballroom, attacking #Democrats, bashing the news #media.
