Patients will be identified by a key worker in each participating General Practice Surgery. A baseline assessment will then be done either in the patient’s own home or the local surgery by the key worker (district nurse/practice nurse/health visitor). The assessment will be mostly questionnaire based and will seek information on basic demographic data, living circumstances, Barthel score, abbreviated mental test score, circumstances of most recent (index) fall and injuries sustained, information regarding previous falls in the last year, risk factors for osteoporosis, 5 point Geriatric Depression Score, and Elderly Falls Test Score score. A timed “get up and go” will also be done. All assessors will be trained in the administration of the assessment to reduce inter-assessor variability.
