Delirium Wheel App
In collaboration with NHSE/I Frailty Collaborative initiative in West Midlands University hospital, Midland’s partnership NHS FT and Staffordshire and Stoke CCG we have developed an app to help care home staff in screening, managing delirium including educational resources. We shared our educational resources Dr Krishnan contributed to the development of the app. The App was developed, funded, and managed by the midlands trust but free to use for all the professionals.
