Annotation | It is estimated that by 2031, the number of people aged 65+ will exceed 15 million and comprise 23% of the UK population. This population shift will have dramatic effects on healthcare provision, and it is essential not only that services are in place to meet this demand, but also that nurses have the skills to care for this age group.
