Well done. Delirium as a preventable cause of dementia deserves study. Much of it arises unrecognized from unnecessarily hazardous routine care of older patients who live with frailty. Polypharmacy, untreated pain, immobilization, and chronic indifference all take a costly toll.

Calling all those interested in POCUS;

I could not agree with this more - and hospitals need to stop referring frail immobile people to an outpatient memory clinic for assessment. Which they physically can’t get to or remember. If it’s really unclear then consider a community memory assessment at home.

A great video showcasing the highlights of the very first pan-age UK Hospital At Home UK Hospital at Home Society conference
