It matters how we speak about our patients, how caregivers speak, and also the language chosen by media or literature when it comes to older people. We should be active in trying to move the focus to respectful language of hope, resilience&love. @MarteCRM https://t.co/uNkuf8RBsr https://t.co/6f21x7usXh
