Abstract
- The author reflects on elderly medicine and its place in the delivery of health care in Great Britain. She emphasizes the discrepancy between the objectives of the directives of the Department of Health National Dementia Strategy 2010 and the National Service Framework 2001 and the medical care provided to older patients on a daily basis. She emphasizes the importance of making elderly medicine jobs a part of the core medical training rotations since over most hospital patients are elderly.
