    Abstract This article describes work on emergency care for older people. It summarises patient experience in emergency care settings, the evidence base relating to improvement of outcomes and emerging interventions and describes tools that can support teams as they work on service improvement. Finally, it calls for the measurement of outcomes that matter to older people, as a mechanism to drive more person-centred approaches to emergency care.

    Abstract The proportion of older adults is increasing worldwide. Frailty assessment in prehospital care was suggested to improve triage decisions and paramedics' judgment. This study aimed to assess the scope and nature of available evidence around frailty identification in prehospital care. A systematic search of the literature was performed using MEDLINE, SCOPUS, CINHAL, and Web of Science to identify relevant articles published from January 2022 downwards. A list of indexed terms and their associated alternatives were pre-determined. Of the 71 identified and reviewed articles after removing duplicates, six articles were included in the review. Due to the heterogeneity of the included articles, the findings were described narratively. The findings of this review showed that the available evidence is limited and heterogenic. Two themes emerged from the findings of the included articles: 1) Paramedics' Perceptions about Frailty Assessment in Prehospital Care and 2) Frailty Scores for Application in Prehospital Care. Paramedics recognised frailty assessment in pre-hospital care to be feasible and important. They highlighted the need for a simple and clear frailty score that could be used and mentioned to other healthcare professionals when handing over patients. Six frailty scores were reported to be used in prehospital care. The evidence around each frailty score is very limited. Overall, frailty assessment in prehospital care was shown to be important and feasible. Different frailty scores have been assessed for use in prehospital care. Further research investigating frailty identification in prehospital care is needed.

    Abstract Comprehensive geriatric assessment is the core toolkit of geriatric medicine. Awareness of and engagement in comprehensive geriatric assessment are crucial competences for all professionals caring for older people living with frailty. The fundamental tenet of comprehensive geriatric assessment is person centredness, which means orienting problem evaluation and intervention plans around an individual's specific biopsychosocial situation to maximise their function and participation. Person-centred outcomes are frequently neglected from measurements of health-care delivery, service improvement, and research. Instead, systems tend to measure outcomes of the health-care service (ie, resource use) or a person's destination following a health-care process. The absence of person-centred outcome measures risks the delivery of health care that seeks to achieve, and is benchmarked against, outcomes that are not best for the patient. We must, therefore, ensure that the outcomes that matter to older people are being measured.

    Abstract Objectives: To evaluate whether the Acute Frailty Network (AFN) was more effective than usual practice in supporting older people living with frailty to return home from hospital sooner and healthier.
    Design: Staggered difference-in-difference panel event study allowing for differential effects across intervention cohorts.
    Setting: All English National Health Service (NHS) acute hospital sites.
    Participants: All 1 410 427 NHS patients aged 75+ with high frailty risk who had an emergency hospital admission to acute, general or geriatric medicine departments between 1 January 2012 and 31 March 2019.
    Intervention: Membership of the AFN, a quality improvement collaborative designed to support acute hospitals in England deliver evidence-based care for older people with frailty. 66 hospital sites joined the AFN in six sequential cohorts, the first starting in January 2015, the sixth in May 2018. Usual care was delivered in the remaining 248 control sites.
    Main outcome measures: Length of hospital stay, in-hospital mortality, institutionalisation, hospital readmission.
    Results: No significant effects of AFN membership were found for any of the four outcomes nor were there significant effects for any individual cohort.
    Conclusions: To realise its aims, the AFN might need to develop better resourced intervention and implementation strategies.
