Geriatric patient disability

Home care in elderly patients can help with the geriatric assessment of disability and functional status and the prevention of complications related or not related to drugs. Stuck et al. conducted a three-year, randomized, controlled trial of the effect of annual in-home comprehensive geriatric assessment and follow-up for people who were 75 years of age or older.The results showed that this intervention can delay the development of disability and can reduce permanent nursing home stays among elderly people living at home. [Pg.443]
