Virtual Study Day structure
The study day consists of a series of lectures aimed at primary and secondary care practitioners looking at frailty from early recognition to end of life. To provide clinical relevance, we follow a fictitious patient - "Mrs B" - on her journey through advancing stages of frailty. The individual topics are introduced by Dr Debbie Bertfield and Dr Shama Mani who are joined by the Acute Frailty Network's clinical lead, Professor Simon Conroy, to discuss the key learning points and consider best practice in a national context.
Certificate
Once you have completed the course, you can request a certificate from the Acute Frailty Network that records your participation in this 'virtual study day'. To do so simply complete the learning review questions at the end of the module and provide your name and email address when prompted.
