This is certainly our clinical experience as well @GeriSoc @EuGMS
@EuGMSSociety congress: 1:7 older adults presenting with a fall at the ED will have a revisit within 30 days: assessing urgent conditions at the point of care is a clear necessity! #WorldFallsGuidelines @TashMasud @GaitandBrain @Age_and_Ageing @MirkoPe41401841 @alvaro_casasher

Thank you @wesstreeting for speaking to the team about the importance of rehabilitation and #RightToRehab at the Labour Conference.
Rehab is crucial to his plans to deliver healthcare closer to home.
We cannot afford to overlook the value of rehabilitation.

Good on ya. In my experience, it’s not the word to which people object, it’s the state. Better than renaming, understand frailty and tackle it. Often in hospitals, no matter the word, many are comfortable in denigrating the people who live with it. That’s what needs to change.

Prof Tahir Masud -ageism in clinical practice. Treat patient not Age. Does your institution consider import of enabling sufficient therapeutic time to frail patients? Is your hospital ageist? @stjamesdublin @HSELive @tilda
