People aged 65 and over account for 40% of all admissions to hospital. Funding community services for older people can significantly reduce emergency hospital admissions and help NHS backlogs. - Day 4 #BGSInvestInCare bgs.org.uk/InvestInCare
Fantastic blog from our ICAT frailty nurse highlighting the importance of holistic, person-centred care within the patient’s home. @WhitHealth @Ruth_E_Law @DrJoSauvage bgs.org.uk/blog/anticipatory…
It was fantastic to have the first @GeriSoc Community and Primary Care committee meeting with such an enthusiastic and knowledgeable group of people caring for older people in the community. @Bloody__Holly @mrsapea @MedleyGough @kilgore_cliff @DebGompertz @FoodieDoctor73
Really disappointed to hear that NHSE are planning to dramatically cut Ageing Well funding. This is essential for patient-centred, community care for older people. Retrograde step. @GeriSoc @Bloody__Holly @SarahMistryBGS @Ruth_E_Law hsj.co.uk/finance-and-effici…
Than you so much for a great course. I’d highly recommend it.
