Celebrating World Water Day with Bush Healthcare
Tomorrow is World Water Day, a global reminder of water’s essential role in our lives. At Bush Healthcare, we’re taking this opportunity to shine a light on how water supports the health, independence, and vitality of those we serve—individuals living with age-related conditions or disabilities. For us, water isn’t just a necessity; it’s a partner in the journey toward well-being, working hand-in-hand with our mobility aids and services.
Why Water Matters More with Age
Water is the lifeblood of good health, especially as we age or manage disabilities. Our bodies rely on it to function, but for older adults or those with certain conditions, staying hydrated can become a challenge. The natural thirst signal often weakens with age, and mobility limitations might make it harder to grab a glass of water. Yet, the consequences of dehydration are significant—and they hit close to home for the community we support.
The Hidden Risks of Dehydration
Dehydration can quietly escalate into serious health issues. For the elderly, it’s a leading cause of confusion or delirium, sometimes mistaken for dementia, which can disrupt daily life and independence. It can stiffen joints and weaken muscles, making movement more painful and increasing the risk of falls—a concern we address every day with our walkers, wheelchairs, and tailored care services. Conditions like urinary tract infections (UTIs), which are more common in older adults and can lead to discomfort or hospitalisation, often stem from inadequate water intake. Even chronic constipation, a frequent frustration for those with limited mobility or neurological conditions like Parkinson’s, can worsen without proper hydration.
