Multimorbidity: clinical assessment and management (NG56)

Evidence-based NICE guideline; particularly important context for applying single-disease guidance to people with frailty and multiple conditions.

Supports frailty assessment, individualised goals, reducing treatment burden and careful review of treatments whose overall benefit may be limited in frailty.

Supports care that considers the whole person, including what matters to them and whether multiple treatments are helping or creating burden.

Core NICE guidance for person-centred care where frailty, multimorbidity, polypharmacy and treatment burden interact.
