Problem: Navigating the Sea of Misinformation

In today's digital age, health information is readily available, but not always reliable. The influx of misinformation can lead to detrimental health outcomes, particularly for vulnerable populations such as the elderly. Recognising the urgent need for accurate, evidence-based health information, Dr. Mucci, a leading expert in geriatric care, has developed the Carers Masterclass. This comprehensive course is designed to empower individuals with the knowledge and skills necessary to make informed healthcare decisions and provide optimal support for older adults. 

The Vision Behind Carers Masterclass

Dr. Elena Mucci is a leading Consultant Doctor in Older Adults and a University lecturer at Brighton and Sussex University, UK. Her extensive experience in geriatric care highlighted the severe impact of misinformation on patient health, as well as the overuse of medical jargon. Many illnesses impacting on daily living are preventable if recognised early and interventions implemented in a timely manner. The Carers Masterclass distills Dr Mucci's experience on common illnesses seen in older adults. The course is an essential tool that bridges the knowledge gap between healthcare professionals and the general public.

The truth about older age

Large numbers of older people living with a chronic illness: According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), about 87% of older adults live with at least one chronic illness. The most common chronic diseases include cardiovascular diseases, cancer, chronic respiratory diseases, and diabetes. However there has been a rise in dementia and other cognitive issues.

Rise in FRAILTY: Approximately 10-15% of people aged 65 and older are estimated to be frail, with the prevalence increasing to 25-50% for those aged 85 and older. Studies indicate that frailty is associated with a 2-3 times higher risk of death compared to non-frail older adults. So preventing or slowing down the progression of frailty should be a goal of every person. 

Hospital Admission: Health Statistics across the world show that individuals aged 65 and older account for around 40% of all hospital admissions. 10 days as an older adult in hospital leads to 10% loss in muscle mass. This increases the risk of falls, which can be prevented.

Institutionalisation: Frailty increases the likelihood of moving into long-term care facilities which are expensive, and in many cases unnecessary if care is provided early by family members. Frail older adults are about 2-3 times more likely to be admitted to nursing homes or similar facilities. Taking steps to reduce decline and improve well-being will delay or prevent the need for expensive nursing homes.
