طب كبار السن

The term geriatrics comes from the Greek word, Geron meaning 'old man', and iatros meaning 'healer'. Geriatric medicine is the branch of medicine concerned with the health of older people. At its core, our center provides a comprehensive assessment of older people living with illness or long-term conditions that affect their daily lives.

We work closely with other professionals to ensure old people receive the highest possible quality of care they deserve. We collaborate with nurses, therapists, pharmacists, dietitians, Psychiatrists, and many hospital specialists to provide holistic care to our senior patients

What We Offer

With the advent of increasing medical complexity, our center is dedicated to following well-established guidelines in managing common problems encountered by our senior patients. All of this care is provided in a friendly environment by a capable team that will treat you professionally.

During your comprehensive visit, we focus on the assessment of:

  • General physical function
  • Cognition & memory
  • Mood & mental health
  • Nutritional status
  • Drug-drug interaction
  • Issues with bowels and urine incontinence
  • Mobility and risk of falls
  • Ongoing health issues
  • Preventive Health Screening

We will work with you to formulate a problem list, which we will use to unlock the possible causes of each finding. Before starting any intervention, your own goals and objectives will be accommodated and will drive the management plan.

The management plan will be delivered by the most capable team member and within the frame of multidisciplinary teamwork. This may include a nurse, physiotherapist, or consultant.

Your caregiver and your family members will be involved in the decision-making If you wish.
