Quality of Life
The Northern Sydney Frailty Group lead by Professor Susan Kurrle is presently conducting a frailty intervention trial (FORTRESS) which uses past experience and knowledge gained, to address frailty in the acute hospital setting and extend this intervention into the community. Interventions are based on the Asia- Pacific Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Management of Frailty adopted as best practice at Hornsby Ku-ring-gai hospital in NSW. The FORTRESS Plus study will use a similar cohort, frailty measurement tool and eligibility criteria to the FORTRESS study but provide added community facilitation in the form of weekly supervised progressive exercise sessions at home after discharge from hospital. The 2020 – 2024 FORTRESS Study intervention group will be used as a comparison group.
