He only works part time now. After having the heart attack he became more weary and he wouldnt be able to do much work. Ned does certain jobs and he can become weak or breathless.IntellectualNed has his full senses in his age. He has great memory and is able to solve problems. Ned is able to act with other people. Neds intellectual development didnt change.EmotionalNed is flighty because he is retiring in a few years. He is used to working because he is working since he was fourteen or cardinal so he has been working for over fifty years.

He enjoys going to occasions such a s weddings to have a good time. Also he enjoys going to his siblings house for dinner and a chat. He also has a good relationship with some of his work mates They all started in one of the factories in town and then got the job in the hotel.My own personal prejudice, fears and anxieties on Neds ingleside Condition. I am worried that Ned will take another heart attack that would regard his development. It could affect him physically by getting weaker and he mightnt be able to return to work. Intellectual it could affect him by him losing his memory which wouldnt be good for Ned. Emotionally and socially it could affect him by world depressed by not able to work if he has another heart attack. Ned could become anti sociable and depressed.Variations/Factors alter the individual at this stage of lifeNed at this stage is still working part time and is enjoying it as is working since he was young. Neds health doesnt affect him that much, unless he is doing something that is making hi s heart over work such as lifting something to heavy or rushing. It could make him tired or breathless.If Ned does something to put change forming on his heart it could affect him by having another heart attack. A way he could manage it is by not lifting anything to heavy or eating unhealthy food which will help his heart. He could go for little walks to keep fit.Another thing that could affect Ned is if he over does something like too much exercise, force something he cant. Ned would be putting too much strain on his heart which could leave him breathless, tired or even in hospital. Ned could do some light exercise.When Ned hits retirement his routine will be out because he wont be working. Ned wont be able to interact with as many people because he wont be working and also he is a single man. He wont have anyone to talk to.Another way is that Ned stops or cuts down on smoking as it affects his health.Recommendations to respond confidently to needs of personI would advise Ned to start getting involved with age action so that he can get involved with other people. He wont become isolated or non sociable with other people. He can meet up with people for an hour or two a hebdomad for a chat and a cup of tea.I also recommend that Ned gets involved with the day care centre the days he isnt working. He can interact with other people and also get his dinner there for little as five euro. In the day care centre they provide activities.I recommend he joins the expeditious Retirement Association Tullamore (T.A.R.A). This is on one day a week for people over the age of 55. The get to go on trips over Ireland, have social gatherings, exercise and creative opportunities.Another organisation Ned could join is the Arden View resource centre. It allows the people to meet up and socialise with other people, go on day trips, and get to do activities.Ned could do any of these organisations that wont be too stressful or to hurtful on his heart. Ned will get to interact wit h other people and become more sociable. He would enjoy the activities and socialising with other people because he likes talking and getting involved.Also these would help Ned to get used to being in organisations because he will be retiring in the neighboring year or two. If he starts now he will get used to being in organisations and where as if he leaves it to the last atomic number 42 he mightnt have the confidence to join.ConclusionFrom doing this assignment I learnt that Neds family heart condition is genetic in his family. His family should be getting themselves checked for heart condition because the could be affected.I also learnt more about a heart disease and what its physical and rational affects are on someone. I learnt that it could kill of some of your heart and I learnt more on the signs and symptoms such as the upper body pain.Bibliography retainCreative Training Book 2015Web sitesCliffs Notes (2014) Development in Late Adulthood online, Available http//www.clif fsnotes.com/sciences/psychology/psychology/developmental-psychology-age-13-to-65/development-in-late-adulthood accessed 30th manifest 2015Cliffs Notes (2014) comprehension and Memory age 65 online, Available http//www.cliffsnotes.com/sciences/psychology/development-psychology/physical-cognitive-development-65/intelligence-and-memory-age-65 accessed 30th March 2015Irish Heart Foundation (2015) Heart Attack online, Available https//www.irishheart.ie/iopen24/heart-attack-t-7_19_61.html accessed twenty-ninth March 201515M4339Samantha OShea
