Geriatric Rehabilitation

Geriatric rehabilitation is a specialized branch of medicine that is dedicated to addressing the unique needs and challenges faced by older adults. It focuses on optimizing their physical function, independence, and quality of life. The goal of geriatric rehabilitation is to help older individuals maintain or regain their functional abilities, enhance mobility, and manage any impairments or disabilities resulting from aging or age-related conditions. This comprehensive approach may involve a range of therapies and interventions, including physical therapy to improve strength and mobility, occupational therapy to enhance daily living skills, and speech therapy to address communication and swallowing difficulties.
