@arnesa_kustura Also loneliness is a killer - associated with equal additive risk to obesity or substance misuse. It is not something people from our culture generally experience.
Today is #WorldParkinsonDay, a day for the Parkinson's community to come together, raise awareness and build connections.
No matter where you are on your journey, whether you need advice, help managing symptoms or simply someone to talk to, we’re here. Every day of the year.
Everyone wants to do person centred care. But do we actually do it? Start off by finding out a bit about people. Easy to integrate into even short encounters like taking bloods or ward round reviews.

Older person confused. Urine dipped. 'Positive'. Antibiotics. Feeling of "job done."
Except: delirium missed, true causes not found, patient discharged still confused. 🫥🫥🫥
➡️ New confusion = delirium.
Same attention needed as chest pain or acute kidney injury. 👍👍👍
