Hi I'm 22 years old and currently studying Certificate III in Aged Care, I'm studying via correspondence and am currently stuck on a question with my assignment. My assignment is for 'Provide Personal Care' and the question is:
Outline strategies that the older person may adopt to promote healthy lifestyle practices.

Thanks

Darren

Hi Hayles,

I would start by mapping out all the healthy lifestyle practices I could think of - eg - diet, exercise, social interaction, mental stimulation etc, then break that down further to identify specific elements that would be suitable to an older person.

Then depending on word count, you would go into detail about each of those strategies that are suitable for the older person and find some references that support what you are suggesting.

Hope that helps to get you going.
