| Annotation | This is the third in a series in Elderly Care on assessing older people. It considers how we age, psychological aspects of ageing, normal versus abnormal ageing, and general changes to skin, hair, senses, and kidneys. The most insidious change in ageing is the decline in homeostatic function, that is, the body's ability to maintain a constant internal environment. Those caring for ill older people need to be aware of changes in their condition. (RH). |
