Could a blood test change how Alzheimer’s is detected?

The FDA has cleared a new blood test designed to help identify signs of Alzheimer’s disease, potentially making detection simpler and more accessible.

But as testing moves earlier, questions around access, clinical oversight and what happens after the test become increasingly important.

Would earlier, simpler testing change how we approach dementia care? What do you think? Comment below, we’d love to hear your thoughts on this.

This result got us thinking.

We asked our community whether the care sector is doing enough to look after its own workforce, and the response was unanimous.

There’s clearly a feeling that more needs to be done.

But where should the focus be?

NHS Sets Out Three-Year Plan To Cut Waiting Lists And Bring More Care Closer To Home

NHS England has set out a major three-year framework that could reshape how care is delivered across England.

The focus is clear: shorter waiting times, stronger community services and more care delivered closer to home.

The plans include tackling the longest waits, expanding neighbourhood health services and reducing avoidable hospital admissions, while giving local organisations greater responsibility for shaping services around the needs of their communities.

But turning the ambition into reality will be a major challenge, particularly alongside financial and workforce pressures.

Do you think moving more care into local communities is the right direction for the NHS? And what needs to happen to make it work?

Tired All The Time? Don’t Just Blame Busy Life 👀

Persistent tiredness, brain fog and low mood can have many possible causes, including vitamin D, iron or vitamin B12 deficiency.

Some symptoms can be easy to dismiss or may overlap with other health conditions, which is why it's important not to self-diagnose.

Our latest wellbeing article looks at the signs, who may be more at risk and when it’s worth speaking to a healthcare professional.

Could you recognise the signs?
