The Edmonton frail scale: a feasibility study on assessing frailty among older adults with multimorbidity in Norwegian primary health care

The EFS supported collaborative care planning by identifying frailty domains, facilitating tailored interventions to address challenges such as polypharmacy, mobility issues, emotional well-being, and dependency in daily activities. The themes of collaborative care, comprehensive assessments, and competent integration highlight the EFS's potential as a multidimensional instrument for routine use in primary care. With proper healthcare professional training, the EFS can promote person-centred care, improve overall care quality and support the early detection and prevention of complications, addressing the complex needs of older adults with multimorbidity.
