Dear Colleagues, With a growing geriatric population worldwide, frailty is becoming an increasingly important topic, because frailty is often closely related to aging. To deal with the challenges resulting from the aging population, services and policies are increasingly focused on independently living in the community rather than relying on institutions, e.g., nursing homes. This fits the wishes of many older people, who prefer to stay in their own homes for as long as possible.
