Frailty Status and Assessment
Purpose:
The patient status alerts will:

What does it actually do?

If this is the case, the user is alerted to the patients current frailty status so they can review it or update it by clicking on the alert to be taken to the frailty template. If there is no frailty assessment or frailty score recorded but the patient is on the frailty register the user can click on the alert to be taken to the frailty template to undertake a frailty assessment or input their frailty score.
The alert looks like this:
If the user clicks on the alert it will then take them to our frailty template where the patients information can be updated:
System Dependencies:
