British Geriatrics Society publish rehab report
The British Geriatrics Society (BGS) has published a report: ‘Reablement, Rehabilitation, Recovery: Everyone’s Business’ looking at the value of rehabilitation for older people. It highlights examples of best practice from across the UK and explores the barriers to implementation.
Commentary within the report that references dementia includes:
“Every older person can benefit from rehabilitation in some way: age alone should not bar access. The approach, intensity and pace of rehabilitation should be flexible and may need to be adapted for people with delirium, dementia, depression, sensory or communication impairments.”
