A few months ago, One Northern Devon, with the support of Northern Devon Healthcare NHS Trust, conducted a survey to gather an overview of issues that older people, potentially living with frailty face in their daily lives.
From this survey, we were able to highlight a number of key issues that were brought up a number of times.
