Age Friendly York

As part of the Age Friendly York project we're looking at health and community support services for older people, and considering whether:

• information about health and social services is clear and accessible
• an adequate range of services is offered for promoting, maintaining and restoring health
• health and social care services are conveniently located and accessible by all means of transport
• residential care facilities and older people’s housing are located close to local services and the rest of the community
• health and community support staff are respectful, helpful and trained to serve older people
• health and community service facilities are safely constructed and fully accessible
• older people who are less well-off have good access to public, voluntary and private services
• community emergency planning takes into account older peoples' capabilities and vulnerabilities
