9 Gait and balance exercise classes Falls prevention exercises in one RCT reduced fractures by 60%- better than drugs?
10 How does this all link to management of frailty? Medication r/v Postural hypotension Vision assessment and referrals Continence assessments Cognition assessments OT interventions Physiotherapy Mental health review Social interventions
