We are so pleased you had a brilliant shift. It is so important that our students have a little bit of exposure to the complexities of frailty discharges. Chesterfield Royal Hospital Acute Care Unit Chesterfield Royal Hospital NHS FT

Demonstrably reminded in #hospitalathome today that ‘clinically fit for discharge’ is largely meaningless in older and frail people especially if they live with dementia and have had a delirium. 1/3

Early intervention in the community – to help prevent hospital admissions of older people living with frailty – should be prioritised, but workforce retention and funding are barriers #BGSBlueprint rcni.com/nursing-older-…

🚨Highly Recommended Tool🚨 The 4AT is a simple and short (<2 min) delirium detection tool designed for easy and effective clinical use. It does not require special training. the4at.com

70-80% of #carehome residents have cognitive impairment or #dementia. Average life expectancy is 1 year in nursing homes; 2 years in residential homes. Providers largely not state-run and there is a long standing issue with the level of state reimbursement for care.

"Most people believe #frailty is inevitable & irreversible. This clinical trial showed that a simple, low-cost, home-based intervention can reverse frailty and significantly improve muscle strength, bone mass, activity levels and slowness in 3 months." bgs.org.uk/blog/twenty-mi…

An entire month harm free. It is fantastic to see the impact specialist frailty education can have on patient safety Chesterfield Royal Hospital NHS FT Chesterfield Royal Hospital Acute Care Unit Jane Parkin @andrea_staley

Merry Christmas to all those working in the NHS today Many staff in the NHS are grossly underpaid (even on Christmas day👇) but none more so than Junior Doctors who frequently graduate with >£100k debt RT to support them & ask government to pay them ALL fairly #PayRestoration

Early identification of frailty in the ED is key for achieving better patient outcomes. Find out more in this expert advice article, exploring British Geriatrics Society resource #FrontDoorFrailty rcni.com/nursing-older-…

"These findings in Age_and_Ageing should prompt us to operationalise rapid screening in clinical practice. Embedding #frailtyscreening in ED should be part of a broader protocol to reflect the unique needs of older adults, ideally incorporated into IT." bgs.org.uk/blog/getting-t…
