Eating well is one of the most important ways to maintain health and energy. It doesn’t have to be complicated – especially for older adults who may live alone or have limited mobility.

Today’s easy recipe is baked sweet potato with cottage cheese - in just 3 easy steps!

What you will need to make this simple but delicious meal:

• Sweet potatoes
• Cottage cheese or Greek yoghurt
• Chives, parsley, and paprika

How to make it:

• Bake sweet potatoes in the oven until soft (or microwave for 5-10 mins for a faster option!)
• Slice open and fill with cottage cheese or Greek yoghurt
• Top with chopped chives, parsley, or a sprinkle of paprika for extra flavour

Why this recipe is great, especially for older adults:

• Rich in vitamin A for eye health and immune support
• Cottage cheese adds protein and calcium for strength and bone health
• Minimal preparation required!

Living well through companionship 💜

Care at home is not just about support with daily tasks, its about fostering meaningful connections and providing emotional support. For many older adults, especially those who may feel isolated or lonely, having a trusted companion can make all the difference.

Why is companionship important for the elderly?

- Boosts overall well being
- Helps maintain hobbies, interests, and social networks
- Reduces loneliness and isolation
- Encourages conversation and day-to-day support
- Offers reassurance for family members
- Builds confidence to stay active

At Prestige Nursing & Care, our companionship services are designed to help you live life on your terms, whether that is accompanying you to daily activities or sharing a conversation over a cup of tea. For more information visit our website: https://www.prestige-nursing.co.uk/

Living Well with Frailty 💜

Frailty doesn’t mean losing your independence – and it certainly doesn’t mean giving up on the things that you love. While it can bring challenges, small and consistent changes can help slow progression, build strength and support overall wellbeing.

Here a few carer-recommended tips to make each day feel a little easier:

• Gentle exercise – look for simple, everyday opportunities to move more and keep active. Whether it is standing while the kettle boils to walking in the garden.
• Good nutrition – add bright vegetables and fresh fruit to boost nutrition and make meals more enjoyable.
• Emotional support – plan at least one social moment each day, whether its sharing a meal with family or having a chat with a neighbour.

At Prestige Nursing & Care, our carers work alongside clients and families every day to help manage frailty in a way that’s bespoke and effective. Find out more about mobility care here: https://www.prestige-nursing.co.uk/conditions-we-care-for/mobility-care/

Today is Race Against Dementia Day — a powerful reminder of why raising awareness and funding matters. Dementia affects millions of people and their families, and understanding the early signs can make a huge difference 💜

What are some common signs of dementia?

🧠 Memory challenges – Short-term memory is often affected first. People living with dementia may have problems retaining new information.
🗣️ Communication difficulties – people with dementia may repeat themselves frequently or lose track of conversations.
💬 Changes in decision making – dementia impacts how the brain processes information and can show as confusion about time and place and can affect decision making.

How is dementia diagnosed?

There is no single test for dementia, so doctors will review a person’s medical history and symptoms and run diagnostic tests to confirm a diagnosis. Some tests include…

- Blood tests
- Mental status exam
- Brain scans

There are many conditions that can mimic the early signs of dementia, so its important to have your health and medical history examined by your GP.

Why not try this January?

A plant-based diet is a powerful way to boost your health and quality of life. Reducing saturated fats and increasing fibre can lower the risk of chronic conditions like heart disease, and as we age, making healthy choices becomes even more important!

What are the key benefits of plant-based eating for older adults?

💚 Better heart health – lower cholesterol, blood pressure, and heart disease risk.
⬇️ Reduced diabetes risk – by improving insulin sensitivity
🛡️ Cancer prevention - more antioxidants and fibre help lower the risk of certain cancers.
👍 Weight management – fibre rich foods help you feel full and satisfied
💪 Improved gut health – fibre rich foods support healthy gut microbiome.
💪 Stronger immunity – nutrient rich foods boost immune function
⬇️ Less inflammation – Antioxidants fight age-related chronic inflammation.
