A report on Medway Resident’s Perceptions of Frailty, Frailty Assessments and the Falls Prevention Service.
In July 2024, Healthwatch Medway worked in partnership with Medway Community Healthcare (MCH), Medway Foundation Trust (MFT) and Medway Public Health to talk to people about frailty, frailty assessments and the falls prevention service.
This report will be shared with Medway and Swale Health and Care Partnership frailty priority workstream, Medway Public Health and Ageing Well. This report will also:
• Provide feedback to MCH Falls Preventions Service and recommendations from people using the service around possible improvements
• Understand the social value / personal impacts for people who have had a frailty assessment
• Provide feedback to MFT Frailty Assessment Service and recommendations from people using the service around possible improvements
• Any statistics available to support having a better understanding of demographics of people using Falls prevention service.
