![]() | Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT During one of my uni projects, we discussed how frailty related to psychological conditions as well as physical. This is an interesting perspective, that we often do not hear about #OTALK |
![]() | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @kerri_schOT @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT See that from time to time in my setting, especially at sub acute units. #otalk |
![]() | Jeni Woods @Jeni_woods_OT @bowker_helen Do you think that frailty is specific to older persons? #OTalk |
![]() | #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 1 #otalk https://t.co/cJMtXX7uzJ |
![]() | Leo Keller @LeoKellerOT @HolleighLouise @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT This is definitely an interesting perspective. I hope to hear more throughout this chat! #OTalk |
![]() | Jeni Woods @Jeni_woods_OT @bowker_helen I think that often we are focused on the physical side of frailty #OTalk |

![]() | Claire-y-definitely-not-a-fairy Marsden 🍄 @occulife @OTalk_ #OTalk Loss of resilience. Homeostatic imbalance leading to increase risk from minor stressors. Characterised by low physical activity, muscle weakness, slowed performance, poor endurance, weight loss |
![]() | Louise @Louisepenny87 @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT Frailty to me is being weakened, being delicate, no longer being robust #OTalk |
![]() | Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @LeoKellerOT @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT Its very interesting. Also MH and LDs can have an effect on physical conditions, so may contribute to frailty in this way too! #OTALK |

![]() | Philip Mason @pjmasonOT @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT Frailty to me suggests fragility and I guess not just the very old can be fragile #OTalk |
![]() | Kerri Schubert @kerri_schOT @BillWongOT @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT i see a lot of frail elderly people.. often our patients are seen by the Frail and Elderly Assessment Team before they come to us #otalk |
![]() | Helen Bowker @bowker_helen @HolleighLouise @Jeni_woods_OT I agree, frailty is not always correlated to age, it is to do with daily functional abilities as well as psychological, cognitive and emotional reserves. this could be anyone at any age #OTalk @jeni_woods_OT |
![]() | Jeni Woods @Jeni_woods_OT @HolleighLouise @bowker_helen What psychological signs would you identify with someone being frail? #OTalk |
![]() | Kim Willis 💙 @Kim_Willis_ @Jeni_woods_OT @bowker_helen Hi, OT at front door services... #OTalk :) |
![]() | Susan Windeatt @mooartdotcom How interesting, definitely very relevant for considering frailty holistically for the person! #OTalk https://t.co/mMTaQNJpIm |
![]() | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT Like a car with a ton of miles on it. They have a lot of old and aging parts, and can break down any time without much warning. #otalk |

![]() | #OTalk @OTalk_ Hi @JoQ_OT you need to put the hashtag #OTalk in all your tweets so people can read them!! https://t.co/ypTL0wx7hO |
![]() | Jeni Woods @Jeni_woods_OT @BillWongOT @bowker_helen That’s an nice analogy #OTalk |
![]() | Molly Harris @mollharrisOT @Jeni_woods_OT @bowker_helen I agree, words that come to my mind are weak, delicate, fatigued, also thinks it’s easy to automatically associate the word frailty with older people #otalk |
![]() | Louise @Louisepenny87 @Jeni_woods_OT @bowker_helen No, not all older people are frail and not all frail people are old. I work in stroke, and the amount of times we say “they are an old 60”, or “they are a young 85 year old”. That’s about frailty #OTalk |
![]() | Jo Quinton @JoQ_OT @OTalk_ @OT_rach Ah forgot my #OTalk already!! Lurking... |
![]() | Kerri Schubert @kerri_schOT @Jeni_woods_OT @bowker_helen I don’t think it is only specific to elderly people.. younger people can be weak/frail etc #otalk |

![]() | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @kerri_schOT @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT Us- depending on the facility, we get a lot of medical histories that might have the rehab team assume, “9/10 times- this person is probably bed ridden.” #otalk |
![]() | Jeni Woods @Jeni_woods_OT @yumteayum @bowker_helen What age range would you define as a person being an ‘older person’? #OTalk |

![]() | Susan Windeatt @mooartdotcom @Jeni_woods_OT @bowker_helen Just discussing today how people with frailty who don't meet referral age criteria may miss out on useful services. #OTalk https://t.co/e7aZgw0YNR |
![]() | Kellie Tedjo @k_tedjo @OTalk_ Sorry forgot to add #OTalk ! |
![]() | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @bowker_helen @HolleighLouise @Jeni_woods_OT Yes- think of kids with some conditions that makes them look like the elderly. Forgot the name of the condition. #otalk |

![]() | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Jeni_woods_OT @yumteayum @bowker_helen Hard to say- I would go with most societies’ definition at 65. #otalk |
![]() | Jeni Woods @Jeni_woods_OT @mollharrisOT @bowker_helen And there has been lots in the news in recently about frailty #OTalk |
![]() | Philip Mason @pjmasonOT @BillWongOT @bowker_helen @HolleighLouise @Jeni_woods_OT Progeria I think Bill #OTalk |
![]() | EmmaRacheal @em_OT_racheal @OTalk_ @OT_rach Hi #otalk. Lurker here! |
![]() | Kerri Schubert @kerri_schOT @Jeni_woods_OT @yumteayum @bowker_helen hmmmm... 75+ #otalk |
![]() | Jeni Woods @Jeni_woods_OT @BillWongOT @yumteayum @bowker_helen It’s an interesting one what age we define an older person- particularly as we’re an ageing population #OTalk |
![]() | Helen Bowker @bowker_helen OK, we are lumping question 2 & 3 together to try and get them all in. 2. What assessments do you use for identifying frailty? 3. What outcome do you use for older patients whoa re frail. @jeni_woods_OT #OTalk |
![]() | Philip Mason @pjmasonOT @BillWongOT @Jeni_woods_OT @yumteayum @bowker_helen 😱 I sincerely hope not Bill I’ve got to work till I’m 75 #OTalk |
![]() | Jo Quinton @JoQ_OT @bowker_helen @suzannahepp @OTalk_ @otalk Saw a lady recently who saw ‘frail’ in her medical notes and was devastated. Thought she was ‘doing well until then’.. #OTalk |
![]() | Kerri Schubert @kerri_schOT @Jeni_woods_OT @yumteayum @bowker_helen but I really think age doesn’t mean much.. you can see a 90 yr old patient who is fiercely independent etc & 60 yr old patients who need max assistance .. #otalk |
![]() | Bethany💙 @BethjmOT @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT Individuals who are more vulnerable. The word frailty to me could link to any age service user, however most people would link this automatically to elderly service users #OTalk |

![]() | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT And then sometimes with frailty, they can be from after having major surgeries. They can sap a lot out of people. #OTalk |
![]() | #OTalk @OTalk_ Just a gentle reminder to use the hashtag in all your tweets. That’s #OTalk, not @OTalk_ - you don’t want to get on my naughty step https://t.co/D9Pg7b5dAv |

![]() | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @pjmasonOT @Jeni_woods_OT @yumteayum @bowker_helen I would raise that and make it 80... lol! #otalk |
![]() | Kim Willis 💙 @Kim_Willis_ @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT Frailty is not age related, however some of the medical model definitions fit the older person #OTalk |
![]() | Jo Quinton @JoQ_OT @bowker_helen @suzannahepp @OTalk_ @otalk Funny as I wouldn’t have said she was ‘frail’. Subjective term?? #OTalk |
![]() | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @pjmasonOT @Jeni_woods_OT @yumteayum @bowker_helen https://t.co/PgrcI3eWYB Speaking of this topic, anyone remember reading this? #otalk |
![]() | Anthea Cree 💙 @antheasaif @BillWongOT @Jeni_woods_OT @yumteayum @bowker_helen #OTalk I think having a lower cut off means you wouldn't miss people, evidence that people with lower socio-economic status get frail younger but lots of 65 year old not old |
![]() | #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 2 and 3 #otalk https://t.co/3imegjRike |

![]() | Holleigh Bryan 💚🏴 @HolleighLouise @JoQ_OT @bowker_helen @suzannahepp @OTalk_ @otalk I think the term "Frailty" has a lot of negative connotations to it; a lot of people thinks it means "old" or "weak" or unable, but that isn't necessarily the case #OTALK |
![]() | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @antheasaif @Jeni_woods_OT @yumteayum @bowker_helen Yes- look at men’s golf. The minimum age to join their champions’ tour is 50. #otalk |

![]() | Jeni Woods @Jeni_woods_OT @latherunique @bowker_helen British Geriatric Society (2015) define it as a distinctive health state related to the ageing process in which multiple body systems gradually lose their in-built reserves. This can have such an impact on an individual's function. As you say... this is not age related. #OTalk |
![]() | Alex Bann @AlexBann1 I'm not an OT but really enjoying the #OTalk thread. Some interesting discussions around Frailty. https://t.co/Zuz0W7ghDD |
![]() | Yee Wan Tham @yee_wan_tham #OTalk In my opinion, frailty means a person is at a higher risk of developing a poorer health including their mobility and independence in participating in meaningful occupations and feeling physically lower in energy. I think it can occur to all ages, not only older people :) |

![]() | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT 2- n/a in my setting. 3. My setting now are using either the Barthel Index or it’s modified version. #otalk |

![]() | Philip Mason @pjmasonOT @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT I have worked in a frailty service and the day to day battle I had was “Is identifying frailty a priority or is the main concern Occupational performance” which frailty will very likely impact upon? #OTalk |

![]() | Kerri Schubert @kerri_schOT @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT I think observation is a great tool to identity frailty #otalk |
![]() | Louise @Louisepenny87 @antheasaif @BillWongOT @Jeni_woods_OT @yumteayum @bowker_helen But you also risk labelling people unnecessarily #OTalk |

![]() | Venthan Mailoo @VenthanMailoo @Jeni_woods_OT @BillWongOT @yumteayum @bowker_helen In one of the #NHS hospitals I worked in the definition of 'older person' was changed from 75 to 80 years because the 'medicine for older people' service was not adequately resourced to serve the healthcare needs of the #AgingPopulation @OTalk_ #OTalk https://t.co/wMWR0wixri |

![]() | Helen Bowker @bowker_helen Timed up and go (TUGT) and balance testing are the ones we would use in our setting which have validity. #OTalk @Jeni_woods_OT |
![]() | Ruth Ndlovu @NeuroOT_Ruth @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT Observation and that initial social history gathering is key #OTalk |
![]() | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @Louisepenny87 @antheasaif @Jeni_woods_OT @yumteayum @bowker_helen But at the same times, some people might wait for that magic number to get much needed healthcare. #otalk |

![]() | Anthea Cree 💙 @antheasaif @Louisepenny87 @BillWongOT @Jeni_woods_OT @yumteayum @bowker_helen #OTalk I think you are right it obviously doesn't apply to everyone and sometimes people not happy to fill in frailty assessment but think it is good starting point to assess people |
![]() | Kim Willis 💙 @Kim_Willis_ @Jeni_woods_OT @bowker_helen We don't use it per say, but it was devised locally from use by A&E staff to initiate getting our MDT involved, which includes geriatric insurance #OTalk |

![]() | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT Not a big fan of that as well. The MBI can be a bit confusing to rate patients if there is no orientation. #otalk |
![]() | School of Oncology @TheChristieSoO Some interesting points of view being shared about frailty #OTalk 💜 https://t.co/wj6I4tEc0x |
![]() | Louise @Louisepenny87 @kerri_schOT @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT Very subjective though.... Do we need to measure frailty? #OTalk |
![]() | Alex Bann @AlexBann1 @LeoKellerOT @antheasaif I'm an Advanced Nurse Practitioner in frailty. So the #OTalk chat has been very interesting so far! |
![]() | Jeni Woods @Jeni_woods_OT @Louisepenny87 @antheasaif @BillWongOT @yumteayum @bowker_helen Yes - Unfortunately often services use age as a inclusion or exclusion criteria #OTalk |
![]() | Philip Mason @pjmasonOT @BillWongOT @Jeni_woods_OT @yumteayum @bowker_helen Yes,that is some serious personal causation, habituation and volitional issues going on to keep her at work that long #OTalk |
![]() | Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT I feel that whatever assessments our departments end up using, we need to have guidelines on what is a sensible score given patient’s current level of function. #otalk |
![]() | Rachel Reece OT @RRenable RT @pjmasonOT: @bowker_helen @Jeni_woods_OT I have worked in a frailty service and the day to day battle I had was “Is identifying frailty a priority or is the main concern Occupational performance” which frailty will very likely impact upon? #OTalk |
![]() | Helen Bowker @bowker_helen @OT_Ruth @Jeni_woods_OT Which I think as OT's are very good at with our holistic view and asking about falls which is a key indicator for frailty #OTalk @jeni_woods_OT |
![]() | Claudia Salmon 💙🇺🇦💛 @yumteayum @Jeni_woods_OT @latherunique @bowker_helen Tend to use Rockwood Frailty Score along with a number of subjective questions #OTalk |
