Older people are everyone's business. It behoves all those working in healthcare (with exception of midwifery/children's to complete the National Frailty Education Programme to understand the fundamentals of frailty (that includes managers, porters, doctors, volunteers) 👇

Physical activity is #medicine ! 🏋️‍♀️🏃‍♂️ New review shows exercise improves health across diseases in older adults. Let's get moving! 🚶‍♀️🚴‍♂️ #ExerciseIsMedicine

Key points:

Exercise treats conditions like #dementia #frailty #sarcopenia where drugs often fail or cause harm. 💊❌
Must use evidence-based modes like resistance training at proper doses. 🏋️‍♀️🏋️‍♂️
Review Rx with exercise like other meds. 💊💪 Watch for interactions!
Integrate exercise pros into care teams. 👨‍⚕️👩‍⚕️🏃‍♀️
Change medical training to value exercise. 🏥🎓

Australia needs innovative solutions and new public health promotion measures to cope with the increasing demand for hospital care caused by an ageing population and an increase in chronic diseases

This figure is staggering! A lot higher than I expected before we started this study.

[Emily Gordon @DrEHGordon]

More evidence that frailty is not synonymous with old age! In this study, 27% of 18-49 year-olds were frail and at risk of prolonged hospitalisation!

Tune in to this very interesting talk!

[Prof Ruth E Hubbard @ProfREHubbard]

Are women less frail than men? After all, they do live longer lives. Or does women’s greater burden of disease and poorer functional status mean they are more frail than men? Looking forward to exploring this paradox next week with ⁦@David_D_Ward⁩ and ⁦@DrEHGordon⁩

[Natasha Reid @drNReid]

Totally agree!

[Alessio Bricca @a_bricca]

Frailty is not a contraindication to prescribe exercise therapy, but rather one of the most important reasons to prescribe it.

🛑A message worth spreading 🛑

We are calling out to any research students and early-career academics across Australia who have an interest in frailty. The Australian Frailty Network is establishing a peer forum for anyone interested, and potential participants are invited to help shape its establishment (1/2)

[British Geriatrics Society @GeriSoc]

3 solutions to the emergency care crisis from BGS President @adamgordon1978:
1. Shift in attitudes - half of patients have frailty.
2. Front door frailty.
3. Investment in rehabilitation. Until we fix rehab, the revolving door will continue.

We are on the edge of a demographic cliff. For the first time in human history there are more people aged over 65 years than there are aged less than 5 years. Managing this requires a complete redesign of the healthcare system and we need to get ready!
