Geriatric Care
Geriatric care is a specialized area of healthcare that focuses on the unique health needs of older adults. It includes preventing, diagnosing, and treating health problems commonly affecting older adults, such as chronic diseases, cognitive impairments, and mobility issues.
Geriatric care also involves addressing the social, psychological, and emotional aspects of aging, including issues related to end-of-life care, caregiver support, and long-term care. Various healthcare professionals can provide geriatric care, including geriatricians, senior nurses, social workers, physical and occupational therapists, and other specialists who work together to provide comprehensive care for older adults.
