Resources for the Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment based
Proactive and Personalised Primary Care of the Elderly
Introduction
Dear GP,
How about a free to use , one stop website packed brimful with multiple resources
to help you design highly customisable protocols tailor made for your practice,
be it urban or rural, large or small
designed to free you to concentrate on clinical examination and decision making,
by sensibly devolving to your practice nurse(s) and staff much of the workload
involved in delivering
ever increasing levels of high quality,
more proactive and personalised care of the elderly
in a way that is realistically time efficient and productive,
and truly financially viable and desirable
starting small and gradually drawing in more of your uniquely local resources and
moving at your own chosen pace
from simple in-house improvements to sophisticated Multi Disciplinary team work
Yes?
Here's a brief overview of the objectives and scope of the Toolkit...
Objectives and scope of the Toolkit
Busy GPs in both rural and urban settings face 2 ever present challenges
time is limited
and ultimately, time is money
Providing care for
an ever growing number of elderly patients
can be time consuming
and poorly remunerated.
But it need not be.
A better quality,
more proactive and more personalised
primary care of the elderly
can be provided by the GP
without sacrificing more time or compromising financial viability.
That requires some reorganisation of services rendered to the elderly, and requires the resources to do so.
Hallo,
I am Dr. Angelo Grazioli
I am the Editor in Chief and Webmaster of CGA Toolkit Plus
I was born in Italy, raised in South Africa
and I am now living and working as a General Practitioner
in the Republic of Ireland.
Let me show you how the toolkit can help you to achieve an improved and viable system of care of the elderly by providing resources to help you :
- delegate significant portions of the workload
to properly trained staff
- equip them with
suitable knowledge and protocols
- devise a tailor-made
modular medical records system which,
unlike the conventional SOAP system,
retains access at a glance of all relevant data,
enabling fully informed decision making
- develop your own support network or Multi Disciplinary Team
and, while doing so,
achieve greater levels of compliance and satisfaction in your elderly patients,
with consequent practice growth and viability.
Sounds too good to be true ?
Not at all
Many GPs have already successfully engaged in the process and documented their journey.
Let's take a look at the challenges,
the solutions,
and how CGA Toolkit Plus can help.
