Frailty e-learning programme

An e-learning programme looking at frailty as a complex multi-system, long term condition has been developed and is available through the Health Education England e-Learning for Healthcare Hub.  

It promotes a universal language in frailty identification that will support professionals to meet the needs of individuals living with varying degrees of frailty, to deliver improved health outcomes.

It explores the multi-system complexity of frailty via the Geriatric 5Ms. This simple framework which comprises Mind, Mobility, Medications, Multi-complexity and Matters most encompasses all the elements which are important when considering holistic care for those living with frailty.  About the Frailty programme.
