About

Frailty is a geriatric syndrome resulting from a decrease in physiological reserve capacities altering the mechanisms of adaptation to stress with, in the absence of diagnosis and management, a short-term risk of falls, hospitalization, loss of autonomy and death.

In 2019, the World Health Organization has taken up this subject with the objective of reducing the number of dependent people in the world by 15 million, i.e. 150,000 in France. For this purpose, recommendations for integrated care for seniors (Integrated Care for Older People = ICOPE) have been published.

6 functions are essential to maintain autonomy: mobility, memory, sight, hearing, mental health and nutrition. The first step of the ICOPE program consists of screening for a decline in one of these functions using a tool made up of questions or tests that can be carried out in 8 to 10 minutes in primary care by trained non-professionals. The second step is a thorough evaluation of the person screened, leading to the creation of a personalized care plan. In the current state of affairs, despite its recommendations, this identification is not carried out in Brittany.

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of implementing the first stage of the ICOPE program by seizing the opportunity of the creation in the Brest region of two Territorial Health Professional Communities (CPTS) : Brest Santé Océane and Iroise santé.
