Geriatric Counselling / Elderly Issues
Geriatric counselling is a process that offers assistance for older adults to cope with the difficulties that they may experience in their transition period from middle to older years. Old age is a period when deteriorating physical health gives rise to a lot of mental issues as well. This period is characterised by a feeling of isolation or alienation, an impairment of independence, a discernible incapacitation in physical movement, loss of near and dear, coupled with the fear of death. Such happenings tend to play a lot on the minds of the old-aged individuals. There is a perceptible decline in cognitive capabilities.
This coupled with mental illnesses if any like dementia, depression, phobias or Alzheimer’s disease can make matters only worse. Geriatric counselling helps the old aged with understanding the mental and physical conditions and provides tools of coping.
At Element H, Geriatric counselling focuses on elderly individuals with complex problems and includes the usage of an interdisciplinary team to improve their functional status and quality of life, by comprehensively addressing intellectual, impairment, immobility, incontinence and iatrogenic disorder.
