Abstrakt: | In response to demographic challenges, primary care need to get familiar with the concept of frailty and the early detection of cognitive impairment. The « Frailty and Alzheimer's disease prevention into primary care » (FAP) project introduced a geriatric evaluation with a nurse in primary care in order to assess older patients. Our work aimed to evaluate the general practitioner's (GPs) opinion involved in FAP project. Methods: This is an observational descriptive study performed in Occitanie region. 26 GPs have involved in this project. The gathering of information was performed through an online survey. Results: GPs estimated that most of the patients benefiting from a primary care geriatric evaluation would have declined hospital evaluation. 92% of the surveyed GPs gave a strongly positive or positive opinion regarding the detection of previously unidentified health issues and the improvement of patient care following this evaluation. 42% of the GPs found that the personalized plan of cares is difficult or very difficult to do. 73% of the GPs considered that they have a better knowledge of frailty syndrome and cognitive impairment after the evaluation. Conclusion: GPs feedback was very positive and promising for the future. It could be interesting to develop this geriatric evaluation in primary care into new regions. |
