Synopsis
Adrian Masters is at Ely Court Care Home in Cardiff to discuss two things that are part of all our lives - getting older and the NHS. Around eight hundred thousand people here in Wales are over 60 and that number is rising. We're living longer and while that is a good thing, it's also something that presents challenges to the health service and social care providers here. Prof Dame June Clark, the Emeritus Professor of Nursing at Swansea University, Jeff Richards from the National Pensioners Convention, Angela Burns AM and Health Minister Vaughan Gething AM share their views on social care in Wales.
