Part 1: Recognition and management of frailty in individuals in community and outpatient settings

This part of the fit for frailty guidelines by the British Geriatric Society (BGS) (2014) intend to support health and social care professionals working with frail older people in the community.

In order to recognise and identify frailty BGS (2014) recommends:

  • During all encounters with health and social care professionals older people should be assessed for frailty
  • There are 5 main syndromes of frailty; Falls, change in mobility, delirium, change in continence and susceptibility to side effects of medication. Encountering one of these should raise suspicion of frailty
  • Gait speed, timed up and go test and the PRISMA questionnaire are recommended outcome measures to assess for frailty

For managing frailty in an individual BGS (2014) recommends:

  • A Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA), which involves a holistic, multidimensional and multidisciplinary assessment of an individual
  • The result of the CGA should be an individualised care and support plan (CSP).
  • The CSP includes a named health or social care professional coordinating the person’s care. A plan for maintaining and optimising the person’s care as well as urgent, escalation and end of life care plans.
