Answer

How can Mallorca communities prevent elderly people from falling through the cracks?

The most practical steps are often simple: regular medication reviews, closer cooperation between doctors and pharmacies, and local check-in networks. Town halls and health centres can also help by making support numbers and services easy to find. Prevention usually depends less on big systems than on clear communication and people noticing changes early.
