Abstract
AbstractNational and international policy goals on healthy ageing and dementia risk reduction are yet to be fully realised in community healthcare settings. Disease modification strategies through lifestyle and social interventions are viable, evidence‐based solutions to reduce age‐related disease burden. However, prescribing lifestyle interventions targeting dementia risk in primary care remains deficient. Using digital technologies to support older individuals and healthcare professionals through formal health checks and lifestyle management is likely to enable shared understanding and consequences of personalized care and treatment options. These tailored solutions may bridge the translation gap and support healthy ageing.
