About Course

A geriatric patient refers to an individual who is older and is receiving medical care due to the unique health needs associated with aging. While there’s no precise age that marks the transition into geriatric care, it’s commonly understood that geriatric age begins around age 65 years due to the increased prevalence of age-related health conditions and functional decline.
