Comprehensive Care for Older Adults

Geriatric Medicine focuses on the health of older adults, particularly when multiple medical conditions, medications, and changes in physical, cognitive and emotional wellbeing interact.

It combines the breadth of Internal Medicine with a specific understanding of the challenges of ageing. Care takes a coordinated approach to managing medical conditions while supporting health, function, independence and quality of life.
