The Royal College of Physicians (RCP)’s Falls and Fragility Fracture Audit Programme (FFFAP) has today published its annual National Hip Fracture Database (NHFD) report.

The RCP in association with National Osteoporosis Society (NOS) has released Strong Bones After 50, a new guide for patients and carers to support older people who have broken a bone following a fall.  

The RCP has again won the contract to deliver the Falls and Fragility Fracture Audit Programme (FFFAP) for the next 3 years.

A programme managed by the RCP that has contributed to improving post-operative care of elderly people who suffer a hip fracture is celebrating its 10-year anniversary.

The RCP's clinical lead for the National Audit of Inpatient Falls, Shelagh O'Riordan, explains how using the RCP's new bedside vision assessment tool can help prevent inpatient falls

On Wednesday 29 March the RCP hosted the fifth in a series of events focused on patient safety, this time looking at medication errors.

Professor Finbarr Martin discusses the need for a joined up recovery pathway for hip fracture patients that includes community services.
