Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month 2025 💜

Pancreatic cancer is known as a “silent” illness because early signs are often subtle, especially in older adults, like your parents.

Many of these changes look like everyday ageing, which is why families miss them.

If you notice any persistent changes, always speak to a GP.

Early awareness can make a real difference.

📌 Save this post as a reminder.

Diabetes doesn’t just affect blood sugar, it can also affect the brain.

Research shows older adults with diabetes have a higher risk of:
• Memory changes
• Confusion
• Vascular dementia & Alzheimer’s disease

This doesn’t mean dementia will happen, but early support with food, medication, hydration & routines can protect long-term brain health.

At Ask Care, we help families by supporting:
✔️ Balanced meals & regular hydration
✔️ Safe medication routines
✔️ Gentle activity & conversation
✔️ Noticing early changes & taking action

This is care that gives peace of mind, and helps your loved one stay safe, independent & supported at home.

Low blood sugar (a hypo) doesn’t always look dramatic, especially in older adults.😔

Sometimes it looks like:
• “Mum’s just tired today”
• “Dad’s in a mood”
• “They’re just confused this morning”

But hypos can come on fast, and need quick action.

At Ask Care, our carers are trained to:
✔ Spot early signs of hypos
✔ Support safe meals & hydration
✔ Encourage medication routines
✔ Act quickly if something seems “off”

You don’t need to manage diabetes alone.

As men get older, it’s common to blame changes in health on “just age.”

But sometimes, those small changes are your body trying to tell you something, and catching them early can make all the difference.

For older men, health checks matter because:
Prostate problems become more common with age
Heart health and diabetes risks increase
Mental health can decline if men feel isolated or stop socialising

What to look out for:
👉 Needing to urinate more often (especially at night)
👉 A weaker urine flow
👉 Tiredness or unexplained weight changes
👉 Withdrawing or becoming quieter than usual
👉 Mood changes or loss of interest in hobbies

These aren’t “just getting older.”

They can be signs of prostate issues or changes in physical or mental health.

💬 If you’d like support caring for a loved one, DM us or call our team to talk through options.

At Ask Care, our carers are specially trained to support clients with diabetes day-to-day, ensuring routines stay consistent and health risks are minimised.

Here’s how we help:
✔️ Medication reminders and insulin support
✔️ Balanced meals to stabilise blood sugar
✔️ Mobility and gentle activity encouragement
✔️ Regular foot checks and early intervention
✔️ Emotional reassurance and companionship

We know how important it is to have someone you can trust, someone who notices small changes before they become serious.

🧡 If your loved one has diabetes, our team can help them stay healthy, safe, and independent at home.

Diabetes often develops quietly, which is why families may not notice the early warning signs.

Even small cuts that take longer to heal, confusion that looks like “just tiredness,” or tingling in the feet can all point to changes in blood sugar and circulation.

Here are 5 subtle signs worth watching for 👇
✔️ Slow-healing wounds or infections
✔️ Unusual tiredness or weakness
✔️ Confusion, forgetfulness, or irritability
✔️ Numbness, tingling, or foot pain
✔️ Increased thirst and frequent toilet trips

At Ask Care, our carers are trained to:
💊 Support with medication reminders
🥗 Encourage balanced meals & hydration
👣 Provide safe foot care checks
🧡 Spot early changes and act quickly

Because when it comes to diabetes, early detection prevents complications, and protects your loved one’s independence and wellbeing.

Most families don’t spot dementia right away, because it rarely starts with forgetting names.

It starts with moments.

The missed turn on a familiar walk.

The half-made cup of tea.

The quiet frustration when they can’t find the right word.

And you tell yourself,
👉 “They’re just tired.”
👉 “It’s normal for their age.”

But deep down, something feels off.

At Ask Care, we understand how hard it is to know when to step in, and that’s where we help.

Our carers are trained to notice early changes, offer gentle support, and give families peace of mind with compassionate, culturally aware dementia care.

Because early help doesn’t just protect memory…it protects independence, safety, and dignity.

Did you know your plate can help protect your heart? 💓

Small daily swaps can have a big impact on cholesterol levels, especially for older adults or those managing diabetes, high blood pressure, or heart disease.

Here are 6 simple, cholesterol-lowering foods to add to your weekly routine:
🥑 Avocados, nuts & seeds – rich in healthy fats that lower LDL (bad cholesterol).
🐟 Oily fish – salmon, sardines, and mackerel are high in omega-3s.
🥣 Oats & barley – contain soluble fibre to help flush out cholesterol.
🌻 Sunflower, olive, or rapeseed oil – use instead of butter or lard.
🍎 Fruit & veg – aim for 5 portions a day to support overall heart health.
🧡 Fortified spreads or soya foods – can help reduce cholesterol when used safely (check with your GP).

At Ask Care, our carers encourage balanced meals, hydration, and daily movement to help clients manage heart health with dignity and confidence.

High cholesterol is often called the “silent risk”- because you won’t feel it until it’s already caused damage.💔

For many older adults, it quietly builds over time, leading to blocked arteries, fatigue, memory changes, and even increased risk of heart disease or stroke.

The good news is that early checks, a balanced diet, and gentle activity can dramatically lower the risk, and this is where the right support makes all the difference.

At Ask Care, our carers are trained to:
🧡 Spot subtle health changes
🥗 Encourage heart-healthy meals
💊 Support medication routines
🚶‍♀️ Promote safe movement and hydration

Because maintaining heart health isn’t just medical, it’s daily care, attention, and prevention.
