“…For example, second-level CGA (performed in the ED [82,83] or, within 24 hours, at the patient's home [89]), individualised discharge plan or case management by specialised nurses or a multidisciplinary team [83,89,90], appropriate referral for primary care and community services [82,83,91], and follow-up [82,83] with ambulatory or home visit or telephone contact [92,93] have been used.
