About

I am a geri GP with a passion for education and bridging the gap between health and social care.

I have founded Upskill for Frailty and educational service for domiciliary care. This complements my home visiting healthcare service in the West Midlands.

I will share my frailty education webinars and workshops on this group.

Some are free to all some requirement payment (sorry!).

ALL are fun, interactive, based on best available evidence and expert led. You will also get CPD certificates if you complete the evaluation after the webinar

I have a good understanding of CQC compliance as I have taken my company through the CQC registration process.

Get on touch if you would like to discuss my frailty education provision further.
