This is a pilot study designed to identify older adults with HIV who are at risk of developing frailty — a condition marked by weakness, multiple health problems, and difficulty with daily activities. The study will screen participants using a simple assessment tool called the Fried scale, then offer those at risk a specialized care plan to prevent frailty from developing.
People with HIV who are over 50 face health challenges similar to people without HIV who are much older. Currently in Belgium, older adults with HIV don't have access to specialized geriatric (aging medicine) care or screening that could prevent frailty, even though they need it. This trial aims to create a care pathway that can help prevent this serious decline.

If you join, a nurse will give you a brief screening test (the Fried scale) before your regular doctor visit. If the screening shows you're at risk for frailty, you'll be invited to a specialized one-day geriatric clinic visit with experts who will confirm the risk and create a personalized plan to keep you healthy. One year later, you'll complete a follow-up questionnaire and screening test to see how you're doing.
