What are Geriatrics Assessments and Why it Matters

Geriatrics assessments are comprehensive evaluations of an older adult’s physical, mental, and functional well-being.
They identify medical conditions, cognitive challenges, and daily living barriers, guiding the creation of tailored care plans that foster independence, enhance mobility, and significantly improve quality of life.
