Tech Not Cash to Fix Broken Care | Leeds News
from Leeds News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
The UK’s social care system is on the brink, with the new Prime Minister calling it “broken” — and the fix won’t be more cash. The real revolution? Early intervention powered by tech. Former A&E doctor Ben Maruthappu of Cera argues that AI can predict health declines before crises hit, slashing hospital visits — like in Hammersmith where hundreds were saved. Beyond prevention, smart robots help seniors stay independent, reminding them to eat, take meds, and stay connected. With better pay and training for care workers, plus NHS integration, this isn’t just about funding — it’s about transforming care into a proactive, tech-driven safety net for older adults. The PM’s cross-party push signals a serious, urgent overhaul is finally underway. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
