Mother Theresa Geriatric Centre

Geriatric care is the area of medicine that is focused on caring for our unique health care needs as we age. In the same way that pediatricians specialize in the care of children, geriatrics focuses on the care of seniors.

Geriatric care helps senior citizens manage their overall health and well-being and maintain their independence for as long as possible. It is the process of planning and coordinating care of the elderly and others with physical and/or mental impairments to meet their long-term care needs, improve their quality of life, and maintain their independence for as long as possible.

Senior parents and other aging loved ones often require specialized health attention. Achieving and maintaining optimal health and wellness for geriatric patients, however, is more than a matter of just medicine. Many health problems occur or intensify simply as a result of the aging process.

In the geriatric patient, these problems are often complicated by additional declines in physical or mental abilities. This often leads to a spiral where the patient isn’t able to keep up with their own care and negative health episodes become more likely or frequent.

Effective care for geriatrics is a job for teamwork between health professionals and caregivers. Both come together to manage health conditions and provide a safe, positive environment for their seniors.

A major concern regarding the elderly family members at home is the absence of safe surroundings. This is especially true for working couples. Here are our specialty pops up. The overarching goal of Mother Theresa Geriatric Centre is to improve the patient experience and provide high-quality and safe care that is cost-effective.
