What a geriatric care clinic does
A plain-language map of geriatric care services — from a first geriatric assessment to medication review, memory evaluation, fall prevention, and care coordination.
Comprehensive geriatric assessment
A comprehensive geriatric assessment: what a first geriatric clinic visit covers — health, memory, mobility, mood, and medications — and how to prepare an older adult for it.
Open →Medication review (polypharmacy)
A geriatric medication review checks every prescription an older adult takes for interactions, duplicates, and drugs that are risky in later life — here's how it works.
Open →Memory & cognitive evaluation
A memory and cognitive evaluation at a geriatric clinic helps tell normal aging from early dementia, so a family can plan early — what's tested and what the results mean.
Open →Fall risk & prevention
Falls are the leading injury for older adults. A geriatric fall-risk assessment finds the causes — balance, vision, medications, the home — and builds a prevention plan.
Open →Chronic condition management
Geriatric care coordinates diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, and other long-term conditions in one plan, so an older adult isn't juggling specialists alone.
Open →Care coordination & advocacy
A geriatric care coordinator keeps an older adult's doctors, medications, and appointments working together — and helps the family understand every decision.
