Planning for your wellbeing in later life can include much more than diet and exercise. Adding to your personal pension pot each month can help you prepare for your retirement dreams and living comfortably in older age, without debt or money worries.
However, an online investment company has conducted some research which indicates that a large proportion of the UK are saving nothing towards their retirement each month. According to findings from True Potential Investor, a large percentage of women (41%) and men (30%) are saving nothing towards their personal pension pots each month. See the infographic below for further information.
Making sure your pension is in order is only one part of ensuring your twilight years are of the quality you deserve. As you get older and your body begins to experience a decline, you may find yourself needing more and more medical assistance to get by day to day. You may even find that trips to the hospital and to the doctors are more frequent.
It is during this period of your life that registered nurses will become a familiar presence. Most of the time, RNs will be working in hospitals or clinics, but they may also have a standing placement in senior centres to promote wellness and health in later life.
