FRAIL Plus in Action – Illustrative Case Examples
Welcome…
This course consists of 3 illustrative case studies to view at your leisure, giving examples of how the FRAIL + approach can be applied to help those with Frailty and Cancer live a better remainder of their lives and receive higher quality personalised anticipatory care, that can better improve health and well-being outcomes.
Each is independent and can be viewed in any order- followed by a brief summary of the learning elements at the end.
These illustrative cases putting the FRAIL plus framework into action can be most helpful for staff with patient facing roles (tier 2 and tier 3 staff) in all settings (community-based as well as hospital-based)
Whilst the cases here are applied to examples of people on cancer journeys, they also illustrate the key concepts around frailty identification and holistic assessments based on Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) domains as well as demonstrating examples of some of the “high impact” interventions of MSE FRAIL plus framework. Hence the case stories can also be useful illustrative cases for all patients with frailty.
These are reference materials and do not have a quiz to complete.
Once completed, please feel free to check other courses that are available in both the chosen category and additional areas of health and care.
