Interface geriatrics: evidence-based care for frail older people with medical crises
Br J Hosp Med (Lond).
2010 Feb.
Abstract
Frail older people are at risk of long hospital stays, and there is growing emphasis on identifying alternative care pathways in the community. Rapid decisions to discharge older people may not always serve the patient well. Specialist assessment from geriatricians could improve outcomes.
