Credit Description:

Many do not realize that Frail Elder Syndrome is reversible, that there are validated tests, and that addressing frail elder syndrome will reduce falls. Areas that need to be emphasized such as socialization, nutrition, and hopelessness are often overlooked. Education with this topic will enhance the outcomes of Physical Therapy interventions and referral to healthcare professionals to impact quality of life. Frail Elder Syndrome is defined through the research to include, among other things, difficulty walking, insufficient nutrition, difficulty with physical activity, decline in self-care, fatigue and social isolation. Medical professionals may be collaborating with clients with Frail Elder Syndrome, not recognizing that this is reversible. Health professionals need to know when their clients have the characteristics of Frail Elder Syndrome that interrupt daily life, safety, and social well-being. Asking about these symptoms can not only lead to a diagnosis and proper treatment but bring light to related conditions and improve quality of life
