The ideal candidate will provide comprehensive care to older adults experiencing frailty, ensuring they receive personalised, high quality care aimed at improving their quality of life. This role requires strong clinical skills, empathy and a collaborative approach to patient care.

The frailty service is a multidisciplinary service for those over 65 years of age who identify with two or more of the five frailty indicators. These include falls, immobility, incontinence, delirium and susceptibility to side effects of medication.
