India, a country rich in diversity, is home to nearly 120 million elderly individuals facing countless challenges – physical, psycho-social, economic, and spiritual. There’s a growing need for a comprehensive approach to address the unique needs of the elderly. This is where Geriatric Care Facilitators like Sure Health step in, providing a tailored solution to keep seniors independent and thriving.

Understanding Geriatric Care:

Geriatric care, or Geriatrics, is a specialized medical field dedicated to enhancing healthcare for the elderly. It focuses on preventing and treating the health issues that often accompany aging, promoting a healthy and fulfilling life for older adults. Geriatric nursing plays a crucial role in delivering personalized care, whether at home, in hospitals, or in specialized institutions.

The Goals of Geriatric Care:

The primary objectives of geriatric care include maintaining healthy function, early detection of severe diseases, and preventing the deterioration of existing health problems. By offering support at various levels, geriatric care aims to enhance the overall well-being of older adults.

• Consideration of patient preferences and needs.
