As we age our healthcare needs change. Valley’s outpatient geriatric care team can assist with your medical needs at this stage in your life.
Geriatric care is a medical specialty that focuses on the healthcare needs of older adults. It involves prevention, treatment, and diagnosis of various health conditions that this population may face. Care can include both medical and personal needs.
Geriatric medicine focuses on those who are age 65 and older, but many patients that require this type of expertise are in their 80s and beyond.
Valley’s geriatric care team works with your primary care physician and other specialists to create a customized care plan. The team offers:
Our geriatric care providers are fellowship-trained and provide office-based, outpatient-focused geriatric assessments. They work in conjunction with the hospital team to provide the transition of care from the hospital setting to other outpatient and home settings.
