NegativeWorld Affairs

- An independent report by the National Audit Office reveals that general practitioners (GPs) are not adequately supporting older individuals living with frailty, with only 18% of patients assessed for fall risk and just 16% receiving a medical review in 2024/25.
- This shortfall in care for frail older adults highlights significant gaps in the healthcare system, raising concerns about the well-being of a vulnerable population that is more likely to experience severe health complications and reduced quality of life.
