“…This also allows for the early identification of surgeons who may be approaching the threshold for safe practice and guide measures to support them, such as flexibility in working hours, changing roles or outright retirement [22].

Objective: Identify, design and develop selective strategies to guide the management of ageing surgeons. Materials and Methods: A semi-structured interview with preset open-ended questions was employed to interview stakeholders in healthcare. Questions related to the continued practice of ageing surgeons and what can be done to leverage the competencies and experiences of ageing surgeons whilst ensuring patient safety. Results: A total of 12 respondents were included before theoretical saturation was reached. Most respondents agreed that the skills of ageing surgeons can be leveraged to improve patient outcomes or are transferable to non-clinical roles such as mentorship, teaching and research. An ageing surgeon's personal pursuits and personality may act as barriers to this approach however. Ways to keep ageing surgeons in continued practice were explored, like the proposal of a functional evaluation. Promises of a work-life balance was also considered to incentivise the continued contributions of ageing surgeons. Conclusion: A comprehensive, multidisciplinary and objective evaluation should be periodically conducted to evaluate the competency of ageing surgeons. Education, mentoring and research career paths can be considered for surgeons who can no longer practice clinically. Professional guidance for retirement planning may be provided earlier for ageing surgeons to be meaningfully engaged post-clinical practice.
