This week HSJ is inviting readers to help shape our Commission on Hospital Care for Frail Older People by answering this question: What policies, techniques and approaches have you seen improve the care of frail older people in hospitals?

What policies, techniques and approaches have you seen improve the care of frail older people in hospitals?

The commission, in association with Serco, is tackling the most pressing issue facing the NHS today: hospital care of an ageing population against a backdrop of flat funding.

In early 2014 the commissioners, led by Dame Julie Moore, will publish a scoping report. But before that we want HSJ readers to share their expertise by telling us what they have seen improve care for older people.

The conversation will run for two weeks, starting on 6 December. On the day, registered users of hsj.co.uk will receive an email invitation with details of how to take part.
