Lonely older adults appear to have more symptom burden at the end of life (#EOL), are more likely to die in a nursing home, and are exposed to more intense EOL care that may contribute to more suffering near death. #HAPC #geriatrics https://t.co/c0hdKrIxcJ https://t.co/xRnd2G0L6A

"Lonely older people burdened by more symptoms and exposed to more intense EOL care compared with non-lonely people". We really don't have much research evidence on loneliness at the end of life, so great to see studies like this being published

@DrVivianS @pwareham Social isolation & loneliness are well known health risks for the elderly. A recent study also showed an association between loneliness and more symptoms at end-of-life. https://t.co/KtfvJ4i38j https://t.co/8V66jqqdQq
