On the island of Jersey, postal workers don鈥檛 just deliver the mail. They also check up on elderly people during their routes. In a five minute chat, they check they鈥檝e taken their medication and if there鈥檚 anything else they need. It鈥檚 popular with older people and their relatives, and the project has caught the attention of post offices - and health professionals - around the world. Could a chat on the doorstep help solve the social care crisis? We travel to Jersey to meet the man behind the idea, and join a postman on his round.
