Pillars of geriatric care - Dr. Dipanjan Chatterjee
Geriatric health focuses on promoting wellness, preventing diseases, and managing chronic conditions in older adults to enhance their quality of life and independence. It addresses the unique physical, psychological, and social challenges associated with aging, such as mobility issues, cognitive decline, chronic illnesses, and emotional well-being. Geriatric care often involves a multidisciplinary approach, including medical professionals, caregivers, and social workers, to provide personalized care. Key aspects include fall prevention, medication management, nutrition, physical activity, and mental health support. By addressing these areas, geriatric health aims to ensure older adults can lead fulfilling, healthy, and dignified lives.
