POPS Part 3| The Frailty Unit
TopMedTalk - A podcast by TopMedTalk - Mondays

The Frailty Unit is part of the service offered by the Proactive care for Older People undergoing Surgery (POPS) team at Guy's and St Thomas's Hospital. Could something like this work outside of the context of the UK's National Health Service? What are the advantages of being able to safely discharge frail patients who may instead have ended up back in the hospital system? Monty Mythen and Desiree Chappell continue their conversation with Dr Jugdeep Dhesi, Clinical Lead, POPS and Consultant Geriatrician, Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Trust.
