Millions more to get test results via NHS app, government says

The NHS app will become the default method of communication for millions more patients in England and save the health service £200m over the next three years, the government has said. More test results, screening invitations and appointment reminders will be sent directly to smartphones as part of a £50m investment in the app, in a move away from traditional communication methods such as letters. It is estimated that at least 50 million letters are sent to patients each year. The Department of Health and Social Care said that people who cannot access app messaging - including elderly patients - will receive text messages and then a letter as a last resort, and NHS phone lines would be freed up. The department says 270 million messages will be sent through the NHS app this financial year - an increase of 70 million on the previous year. Push notifications will provide appointment reminders to patients to try to reduce the risk of no attendance - with around eight million missed appointments in elective care missed in 2023/24. Work is also under way to enable users of the app to add appointments to their phone calendars and request help from their local GP surgeries. Figures show that more than 11 million people in the UK log into the NHS app every month, while almost 20 million are opted in to receive healthcare messages from the app. It is hoped the changes will give patients better access to manage their healthcare journey and make informed decisions about their care. NHS app services, which were launched in December 2018, are now used in 87% of hospitals across England. Health Secretary Wes Streeting said further investment in the app would bring the NHS into the digital age so that being a patient was as "convenient as online banking or ordering a takeaway". He added that moving away from paper communication could free up funding for front line services. Rachel Power, chief executive of the Patient's Association, said the upgrade was a "significant step in modernising how patients receive information". The British Medical Association (BMA) has previously warned that a reliance on apps to the NHS to communicate with patients risked alienating patients who don't have access to digital technology. It followed the government's announcement in January that it planned to allow more patients in England to book treatments and appointments through the app. Last month, NHS England announced millions of patients would be able to get "Amazon-style" tracking updates on their prescriptions through the app, to check if their medicines are ready to collect or have been despatched for delivery.

5 signs it might not be safe for your aging parents to live alone anymore, according to an expert

We plan for vacations and plan for retirement, but end-of-life planning is something we tend to put off. Talking about downsizing or moving into a retirement community (or a long-term care facility) are among the most important conversations adult children will have with their parents, and experts say these conversations should happen as early and often as possible. Broaching the subject of downsizing or moving can be delicate, and most elderly parents are resistant to move out of their houses. In fact, nearly every Canadian wants to age in their homes and communities. A 2020 survey found that 96 per cent of Canadians aged 65 and older would do 'everything they could' to avoid going into a long-term care facility, according to the National Institute on Ageing. That's a relevant statistic to consider when approaching your aging parents with this sensitive conversation. Meanwhile, Canada's population continues to age. Around 19 per cent of Canadians were aged 65 and older on July 1, 2023. By the end of the decade, seniors could represent between 21 per cent to 23 per cent of the total population. As this demographic continues to grow, conversations around end-of-life planning will increasingly move to the forefront. With this in mind, Yahoo Canada spoke to an expert about signs it might be time for your parents to consider downsizing. It's hard to know when it might be time to help your elderly parents downsize, but Stephanie Chan, a senior living advisor and founder of Home to Home, a care planning business based in Vancouver, B.C, has a few common clues to look out for. One scenario for aging parents is their day-to-day routines seem normal, but gradually over time, you spot subtle warning signs. 'They may seem minor and not as noticeable,' Chan says. 'But I would encourage families to pay attention to a few things.' 1. Mobility 'Observe how your parents are getting around the house. If you're picking up to go to an appointment, do you notice that it's taking them longer to get ready? Are they manoeuvring stairs differently? Have they had any falls, even small falls, in recent weeks?' Chan says mobility is one common warning sign to consider whether the living environment is still suitable. 2. Ease of daily living Changes in your loved one's ability to bathe themselves or go to the washroom on their own are another indicator it might be time to discuss living arrangements. 'Are they remembering to take their meds?" Chan asks. "Are they cooking for themselves? Are they keeping the house tidy? Are they dressing themselves OK?" 3. Mental wellbeing "Do they seem more isolated? Socialization can really impact one's well being. If you notice your parents never going out and they're isolated all the time, that could be a warning sign to think about moving," Chan says. "Seniors residences have a lot of socialization, and I think it's actually one of the most underrated benefits of seniors residences.' 4. Cognitive ability Another sign is if your parent has become more forgetful to the point where they're unable to take their meds or are at risk of going out and forgetting their way home. Diagnoses of dementia or Alzheimer's are also indicators it may be time for new a new living arrangement to ensure their safety. 5. Triggering events The loss of a spouse or loss of a driver's license could also trigger a discussion of downsizing or moving to a group environment. Similarly, a chronic health diagnosis that could impact their daily routine may also be a catalyst for discussing living arrangements. In her 18 years dealing with seniors, Chan says resistance to talk of in-home care or moving is one of the biggest conversations she helps families navigate. If your parents need help at home, her advice is to start small, whether it's hiring a cleaner, gardener, or cook to help with daily tasks. 'That might be a good way to just get your feet wet with trying out home care,' she says. And, if the family agrees it might be time to move, Chan suggests people tour residences. Book it during lunchtime if possible. 'Many places will invite you to stay, and you can test out the food and see other residents coming down for their meals,' Chan says. 'It will demystify any preconceived notions of what seniors' residences are like. A lot of people think it's doom and gloom, but there's a lot of seniors' residences that are very, very nice.'

Montréal and Toronto have some of the worst air quality in the world due to wildfire smoke: How to protect yourself, according to an expert

Toronto and Montreal's air quality is on par with some of the worst in the world due to drifting wildfire smoke. While fires continue to burn in Western Canada, wind has carried smoke from the fires to Ontario, Quebec and areas in the U.S. like Nebraska, Michigan and Wisconsin. The impact of wildfire smoke is so severe, Environment Canada issued air quality statements for the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and Montréal Island Area. As of 12:25 p.m. EST., IQAir, a Swiss technology company, ranked Montreal as the city with the worst air quality in the world. Toronto came in third place, behind Santiago. Environment Canada is encouraging people, especially the elderly, pregnant people, children and people with chronic health conditions, to avoid spending time outdoors whenever possible. As of June 6, the Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre reported 212 active fires in Canada, with 91 considered out of control. Mandatory evacuation orders were issued for parts of Alberta and Saskatchewan due to poor visibility and air quality due to smoke. Manitoba's state of emergency required residents of several communities to evacuate due to air quality and lack of power.

Contact a qualified medical professional before engaging in any physical activity, or making any changes to your diet, medication or lifestyle. Wildfire smoke isn't just contained to affected areas. Environment Canada has issued a weather alert for parts of Ontario due to poor air quality that may cause people to experience symptoms like cough, headaches as well as nose and throat irritation. The Weather Channel in the U.S. reported wildfire smoke from Canada is visible as far as the Gulf Coast. Winds have caused smoke to impact air quality in states like Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan as well as North and South Dakota. As the wildfire season kicks off, ways to protect ourselves from smoke are top-of-mind for many. Yahoo Canada previously spoke to a top respirologist in Toronto, who weighed in on the impact of smoke on our lungs, and what to do to stay safe. Read on for everything you need to know. Dr. John Granton, a respirologist at the Toronto General Hospital (University Health Network), told Yahoo Canada wildfires cause air pollution that can have a far-reaching effect on human health. Small air pollutant particles in the smoke, called the PM2.5 particles, are "where a lot of the toxic stuff lives," Granton explained. "That's not filtered by your upper airway, that gets access to your lower airway and into your bloodstream even — and that's where the danger lies. "That can cause asthma attacks, can cause heart attacks, can contribute to hospitalizations and has long-term health outcomes." Even just the smell could cause problems to some, he said. "Being in smog all day long, the smell bothers people; it can cause irritation of the upper airway, some of the larger particles can cause irritation, and cause symptoms. People [who] have chest symptoms or asthma, it can make them feel worse." Granton said smoke isn't easy to escape, but there are some things people can do try and stay safe. According to Granton, "there's not a lot of data to support the health benefits of masking" when it comes to safety from wildfire smoke. But, he said there is research looking into the effectiveness of filters. "Cloth masks or scarves and things are not effective at all," the doctor claimed. But, surgical masks and N95 filter masks "tend to filter those smaller particles," he added, "apparently some of those masks are effective." Granton said "they're not going to filter the gases," though, and there are studies that question whether masks that aren't properly fitted would actually help in the real world. "Whether or not that has a direct health benefit is speculative right now," Granton explained. However, he said it "may be reasonable" for those who have underlying health conditions and those who have to be in the hotspots of the pollution to wear one. "If you have to be outdoors and doing things, then wearing that sort of mask to protect you would be sensible." Though filtration masks could aid in protecting your lungs from smoke, the number one recommendation from experts is to stay indoors. According to Health Canada, the following measures should also be taken: Reduce sources of indoor air pollution (smoking, vacuuming, burning candles, wood stoves) Prevent infiltration of outside air (seal windows, instal a high-quality air filter, set HVAC system to recirculation mode, limit use of exhaust fans when not cooking) Have a functioning CO alarm Use a portable air purifier and air conditioning Granton echoed this advice. "Most people recommend staying indoors as much as possible and not exercising or doing things outside," he reiterated.
