New programs and services are expanding support for older adults, people with disabilities and family caregivers. In Virginia, Valley Program for Aging Services offers twice-monthly dementia support sessions and a free caregiver conference with practical resources and workshops. Hanoi’s 2026 resolution prioritizes public elder-care facilities, community daytime care and clubs, workforce training, and a wider range of private and home-based services. Assisted living can also support older adults’ health and reduce isolation through daily activities, meals, health care and social connection. Oregon has introduced Agency with Choice, a Medicaid option that helps eligible adults manage the recruitment, training, scheduling and supervision of in-home care providers while receiving services at home.

A study found that AI systems struggled to identify psoriasis in images of people with darker skin, with the best models reaching only 25% accuracy, underscoring risks of missed diagnoses. Separately, dermatology experts said older adults should not be denied effective biologics based on age alone, while an Eli Lilly study reported that combining psoriasis drug Taltz with obesity drug Zepbound improved skin clearance and weight loss compared with Taltz alone.

Ophthalmology Advances Span Drugs, AI, Infusions

Dermatologists say people taking GLP-1 medications may need to adjust skincare and use caution with harsh retinols because treatment and weight loss can affect skin quality and collagen; they recommend consulting a dermatologist without letting skin changes alone deter appropriate treatment.
