We are frequently advised that we should change the name of palliative care 'to something less negative.' But new words will mean the same thing & develop the same associations. Listen to the wisdom of @Krockdoc about the word 'frailty.' We have to illuminate our trusted words.

🚨New IGS Podcast 🚨 For the latest episode, @edelphysio talked to Prof Ken Rockwood @Krockdoc about his career, understanding frailty (including the word itself), deconditioning & lots more. Listen here 🎧open.spotify.com/episode/1iSW6m… @DalhousieU @GeriSoc @CanGeriSoc @EuGMSSociety



Between sims & socials, #IGS2024 was a great opportunity to showcase the work of the Active Recovery Team (ART) @stjamesdublin to date with a panel & 2 posters presentations @Ao_Dillon

Thanks to all the team from @WICOPSIM for inviting me to be part of todays live Sim event at #IGS2024 Not every day you get to play a physio in front of a live audience of >200 people 👀

Great fun & such a privilege bringing @WICOPSIM to @irishgerontsoc IGS 2024. Feels like there’s great potential in gerontological sim. Huge support from @HSE_NSO to help pull it off. All the real credit though goes to the team at WICOP @SouthEastCH @UHW_Waterford
