Why we must completely rethink ageing
Old age could be so wonderful. But our society discriminates the elderly. And worse still, they see themselves as old and exclude themselves. This has consequences. Illness and frailty in old age are considered normal, and therefore, care for the elderly follows the principle ‘well fed, clean and dry’. But does a nursing home really have to be the end of the road? Two pioneers of the ‘care of the future’ are calling for a rethink.
