Abstract

An improvement in professional practices on the topic of frailty is desirable as much for ambulatory care teams (professionals in home care services) than for hospital care teams (medical and paramedical). Geriatric prevention, screening for frailty, are major challenges for the years to come and require involvement and a know-how. The main hypothesis is that the screening of the frailty of the elderly, by the home care services is relevant and reliable, therefore making it possible to detect a state of frailty and organize preventive care at the earliest. The objectives of this research work are: * to demonstrate that the use of a questionnaire, simple and already validated for a medical use, can be administered by home care services with just as much relevance, * to democratize the detection of frailty by demonstrating that home care services have an important role to play in terms of screening and therefore an equally important impact in terms of public health, * to recall the importance of screening in medical practice, including for the elderly.
