Care of the older patient services are based on Level 6 of the Whittington Hospital on Meyrick, Cloudesley and Cavell wards. We provide liaison services on the orthopaedic and surgical wards and have an established acute frailty service for patients attending accident and emergency, to facilitate early assessment and discharge of the frail older person. The Department works closely with Whittington Health community staff, engages community services and voluntary organisations to join up care between the acute and community setting.
