A lovely piece in the @GeriSoc newsletter AGENDA, by @RowanHarwood, editor of @Age_and_Ageing, as he reflects on the wide ranging specialty that is Geriatric Medicine and its overlap with Old Age Psychiatry.

Much to think about here, and much to gain from partnership working.

[British Geriatrics Society @GeriSoc]

#Frailty affects 1 in 10 over 65 y/o & up to half of 85+ y/o. These groups are most likely to benefit from #ProactiveCare. Many with frailty also live with other long-term conditions. Focus on providing holistic assessment in this guidance is very welcome. https://t.co/5rIyjEI3Ys
