The population ageing rate in Taiwan is rapidly increasing and it has become a growing public health concern for the whole society. Older adults have some unique health conditions, including the complexity of the diseases (comorbidity) and geriatric syndromes (e.g., falls, frailty, delirium, etc.). These conditions could not be viewed as part of normal aging, and should be recognized and intervened early. Our geriatric department centers on the whole person concept, providing comprehensive geriatric assessments. Besides diseases management, it provides multidimensional evaluations, including medication reconciliation, physical function, nutrition, and daily care. It is expected that, under the joint efforts of our team members, patients and family (and/or caregiver), older adults could receive care in an integrated and thoughtful way.
