Brilliant start to day 3 of #EuGMS2025 with @Krockdoc introducing passive measures of frailty and settling the screen vs assessment debate. @irishgerontsoc
Take 25 minutes to enjoy this fantastic podcast featuring our Co-Director, Prof. @galvin_rose 🎉, as she celebrates her upcoming IGS Presidential Medal award🏅

IGS President Dr. Emer Ahern’s letter to the editor published in @IrishTimes
“Older adults are entitled to the same dignity, autonomy and human rights as anyone else.”
Dignity and rights don’t expire with age.

We are frequently advised that we should change the name of palliative care 'to something less negative.'
But new words will mean the same thing & develop the same associations.
Listen to the wisdom of @Krockdoc about the word 'frailty.'
We have to illuminate our trusted words.
Between sims & socials, #IGS2024 was a great opportunity to showcase the work of the Active Recovery Team (ART) @stjamesdublin to date with a panel & 2 posters presentations @Ao_Dillon
Thanks to all the team from @WICOPSIM for inviting me to be part of todays live Sim event at #IGS2024
Not every day you get to play a physio in front of a live audience of >200 people 👀
Great fun & such a privilege bringing @WICOPSIM to @irishgerontsoc IGS 2024. Feels like there’s great potential in gerontological sim. Huge support from @HSE_NSO to help pull it off. All the real credit though goes to the team at WICOP @SouthEastCH@UHW_Waterford
Calling all NCHDs attending #IGS2024 don't miss this interactive session with Dr. Siobhan Kennelly, hosted by our two IGS NCHD Reps Ciara & Karen.
