Summary

This study tests a digital tool that identifies health and social needs for frail adults aged 60 and older in Singapore. Participants answer a questionnaire, receive a personalized care plan, and get follow-up calls to help them access services. The goal is to see if this approach improves quality of life and reduces hospital use after discharge.
