ConclusionsThere was qualitative evidence of learning from the GP and geriatric trainees, with good formal feedback from patients.This pilot project provided an exciting template to improve training of both GPs and geriatricians, improve the care of the older population and facilitate closer working between primary and secondary care.Barriers to implementation may include the existing pressures on services to take registrars out of secondary care and to use 30-minute appointments.Evaluation of costeffectiveness and patient outcomes should be investigated in future studies.■
