Preventing frailty in older adults with chronic conditions
This study tests if a personalized prevention program based on a full health check (comprehensive geriatric assessment) can help prevent frailty in older adults who already have at least one long-term health condition (like heart disease, diabetes, or arthritis). If it works, the program could keep you stronger and healthier longer.
