📢New BGS publication! We have today published a new resource aimed at supporting healthcare professionals who want to offer a front door frailty service to older people presenting at emergency departments. #FrontDoorFrailty bgs.org.uk/policy-and-med…

Around 10% fewer elderly people who fall in nursing homes across Swansea and Neath Port Talbot are being taken to hospital by ambulance, thanks to better staff education. More sbuhb.nhs.wales/news/swansea-b…
