Please see attached press release about a specialist team which is starting to transform care for elderly people in Shropshire, and which is starring in a new national video by NHS England.

The Frailty Intervention Team, based at the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital, was originally started as an idea by Shropshire Clinical Commissioning Group and The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust to help local elderly people avoid being admitted onto a hospital ward where they risk lengthier stays and recovery periods.
