"Visit to FOPAS Frail Older Person's Assessment..."

I would just like to say a massive thank you to the FOPAS unit. My father in law was referred after suffering a fall at home and within hours he was in the unit having various tests to ascertain if there was a medical condition contributing to this. They were extremely thorough checking standing and sitting blood pressure, heart trace, blood tests, medication checked, chest x ray and occupational therapist. They were all professional, caring people who treated him with the utmost respect and dignity. Added bonus was that lunch was provided together with continual drinks so that no one gets dehydrated. They also offered lots of practical advice to help with on going issues and sorted follow up appointments with the Doctors surgery. They like to ensure that all results are available for the Consultant (who is absolutely brilliant and easy to talk to) to discuss with the invidual prior to discharge/further treatment. It is just a brilliant idea to have a unit like this where all the Professional services come to the patient. Thanks again.
