Dr. Chavi Tejpal is a family and care of elderly physician with the Central West Ontario Health Team CARE program delivering team-based, home-centred care to frail seniors who face barriers accessing traditional community services.
If Ontario wants to help more people age at home, it should apply lessons from home palliative care to frailty right now. It needs to stop treating frailty as an administrative afterthought, and act on what it already knows works.
