WATCH: HSJ webinar featuring Wessex nutrition lead

Update to the below story - you can watch the webinar here (free registration required).

 Kathy Wallis, programme lead for nutrition in older people at Wessex AHSN, was one of three prestigious panellists discussing the role of nutrition in the care of frail older people in a webinar hosted by HSJ on Tuesday, 20 June 2017.

The experts discussed a cost-effective way in which commissioners could reduce demand from frail older people. Finding better ways to care for the growing number of older people is a key challenge for the health service. Reducing the proportion of those who become frail will be crucial, and will involve a multi-faceted approach to bolstering well-being.

Kathy was joined on the panel by Mike Wallace, strategic affairs director at Nutricia Advanced Medical Nutrition, and GP Sara Nathan.
