Has carers who support with domestic ADLs and provide some assistance with personal care, and is able to go out on a wheel chair/uses a frame to mobilise indoors. She is now beginning to develop increasing problems with indoor mobility, and has had two falls. Also developing some mild problems with memory and is finding it difficult to manage her bills/medication.” • Screened and assessed as moderately frail. Referral made to locality MDT
