Care is about more than remembering. Itโ€™s about remembering the person. ๐Ÿ’œ

This World Alzheimerโ€™s Day, we recognise the individuals, families, caregivers and communities navigating the realities of Alzheimerโ€™s and dementia.

At Tafta, weโ€™re committed to creating environments where older people can continue to experience connection, dignity, belonging and care- whatever their journey may look like.

Staying hydrated is important for energy, concentration and overall wellbeing, especially during warmer weather?

Older adults may not always feel thirsty, so it's important to remember to drink fluids regularly.

Simple tips:
๐Ÿ’™ Keep a water bottle nearby.
๐Ÿ’™ Drink water throughout the day.
๐Ÿ’™ Include water-rich foods like fruit.
๐Ÿ’™ Drink more when spending time outdoors.

Staying hydrated helps support:
๐ŸŒฟ Energy levels.
๐ŸŒฟ Healthy body function.
๐ŸŒฟ Comfort and wellbeing.

๐Ÿ–ค WEAR BLACK + SPEAK UP + STAND TOGETHER๐Ÿ–ค

Eight women. Eight lives. Eight stories that should never be forgotten.

This Friday, TEAL stands in solidarity with the initiative.

Because violence against women has no age limit.
Because older women deserve safety, dignity and protection too.
Because silence is not an option.

Remember - Speak up, Protect, Act!

Abuse is NEVER just part of getting older.

This Spring, letโ€™s pull out ageism, neglect and abuse and make room for dignity, safety and respect.

Speak up, stand up, and make sure abuse never gets brushed off as just part of ageing or dementia.

We've been asked... "what information should I have ready in case of an emergency?"

It's a great question and one that's worth thinking about before you ever need it.
A simple emergency information folder can make all the difference.

Consider keeping an up-to-date record of:
๐Ÿ“ž Emergency contacts.
๐Ÿ’Š Current medications.
๐Ÿฅ Your doctor and healthcare details.
๐Ÿ“„ Important documents.
๐Ÿ”‘ Where important items can be found.

Most importantly, make sure someone you trust knows where this information is kept.

A little preparation today can provide confidence, clarity, and peace of mind tomorrow.
