LOCSU is calling on eye care to be integral to the planning and prevention of frailty after a Public Accounts Committee (PAC) report found
overloaded GPs could not adequately carry out the necessary assessments.

GPs are contractually obliged by NHS England to identify, assess and support people living with frailty. The report found many were unable to deliver the required care, with just 17% of patients aged 65 or over assessed for frailty in ’24-’25.

LOCSU has produced a report outlining how and why primary care optometry should be explicit within healthy ageing, falls, frailty and ageing well strategies.

There are supporting resources available for LOCs to use in our members area.
