The Autumn 2024 Budget marks a pivotal moment for the NHS, with Chancellor Rachel Reeves announcing an additional £22.6 billion over the next two years for the Department of Health and Social Care, plus £2 billion in capital to advance NHS technology and digital infrastructure. These funds represent a crucial step in addressing the NHS’s immediate needs, especially as it contends with the challenges of a post-pandemic world, an aging population, and persistent financial constraints. But for Able Care, the question remains: will this investment catalyze sustainable improvements that enable a future-ready NHS - one that transitions from reactive care to a proactive, preventative approach, aligning with the evolving needs of society? #AbleCare #DigitalHealth #NHS #HealthcareInnovation #GripStrength #PersonalizedCare #ValueBasedCare #PreventiveHealthcare #DigitalHealthSolutions #HealthReform #Autumn2024Budget #SustainableHealthcare #PatientEmpowerment #DataDrivenCare #IntegratedCare #PreventativeMedicine #CommunityCare #TechnologyInHealthcare

This #WorldStrokeDay, let’s look at the critical role of grip strength assessments in stroke prevention. Did you know that lower grip strength is a significant predictor of stroke risk? Research indicates that diminished grip strength is associated with a higher likelihood of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, including stroke [https://lnkd.in/dgKbP5ZG]. Able Assess is our clinically validated, highly sensitive grip strength dynamometer and normative data platform. Measuring grip strength early and regularly with Able Assess allows identification of individuals at greater risk, enabling proactive strategies to prevent strokes. 🧠💙 Grip strength is more than just a measure of physical health; it’s an indispensable biomarker that reflects overall health and vitality. With the insights provided by Able Assess, patients and clinicians can work together to monitor this essential metric and take proactive steps to enhance health outcomes. 💪✨ Let’s empower patients and providers with the right tools to stay ahead of stroke risk. #WorldStrokeDay #StrokePrevention #GripStrength #PatientCare #HealthcareInnovation #AbleAssess

October is National Cholesterol Month in the UK—a perfect time to revisit how we assess cardiovascular risk. While cholesterol levels remain a cornerstone of heart health, a growing body of research is highlighting the importance of adding grip strength to the equation. 📈💪 Studies show that reduced grip strength is strongly linked to heart disease and cardiovascular mortality, even when accounting for cholesterol. Incorporating grip strength alongside cholesterol in assessments allows for a more comprehensive view of patient health and enhances the predictive power for cardiovascular events. Our digital Able Assess platform optimises grip strength assessment, making it easy for clinicians to measure and track grip strength, providing actionable data to support preventative care and improve patient outcomes. Clinicians: it’s time to expand the toolkit. Combine cholesterol with grip strength to deliver stronger insights and better care. 💪❤️ #CholesterolMonth #HeartHealth #PreventativeCare #GripStrength #CardiovascularRisk #HealthMonitoring #AbleAssess #CholesterolAwareness #Biomarkers

 🌟 Thank you Nashville! 🎶 A week of inspiration and insightful discussions with leaders at the forefront of the healthcare industry. 💡 🤝 During the Nashville Healthcare Sessions, we had the privilege of learning from industry giants like Brookdale, HarmonyCares, Community Health Systems, and Optum. A key theme was the urgent need for better preventative, predictive, and personalized care solutions to address a rapidly growing aging population. With 10,000 new seniors in the US every day, many face functional decline, impacting their independence and driving up Medicare Advantage costs—50-75% of which are linked to frailty and falls. 📊 Early intervention is crucial, and Able Care is on a mission to keep seniors at home longer, reduce readmissions, and improve quality scores by working closely with at-risk providers. 👴 👵 We were also honored to pitch at the Global Health Innovators Summit. 🌎 💡   During this exclusive gathering, we explored the transformative potential of emerging technologies in healthcare. A big thanks to Eric Thrailkill and Paul Kusserow for leading a thought-provoking discussion on the 10 forces—both macro and market—that are crucial to solving America's health challenges, and for shedding light on the opportunities and challenges in driving efficiency within the healthcare system, as highlighted by organizations such as Amedisys. 📈 🙏 Grateful to the Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce for hosting such an inspiring event! #Sessions2024 #NashvilleHealthcareSessions #TheHealthcareCity #HealthcareInnovation #GlobalHealth #NashvilleTech #AIinHealthcare #HealthTech #GlobalInnovation #AbleCare
