The post offers opportunity to gain experience in undertaking comprehensive geriatric assessment, developing higher communication skills (particularly regarding advance care planning) and using the concepts and principles of frailty to improve patient experience of care. There will be opportunity to undertake procedures (with appropriate supervision).
