The Barbados Association of Retired Persons is supporting the Barbados Association of Medical Practitioners’ call for Barbadians to take their health seriously.
It comes days after BAMP raised concerns that most Barbadians over 65 have at least one non-communicable disease, according to a recent Health of the Nation study.
BARP President Marilyn Rice-Bowen says the findings are deeply concerning for the nation as a whole and reinforce that healthy ageing does not begin at retirement, but rather decades earlier.
