The process of providing care for the elderly is commonly referred to as geriatric care. This specialized field focuses on the health and well-being of senior individuals, addressing their unique physical, emotional, and social needs. Geriatric care can take many forms, including medical treatment, assistance with daily living activities, and supportive services to enhance quality of life. It can be provided in various settings, such as homes, nursing facilities, or assisted living communities. The goal of geriatric care is to maintain independence for as long as possible while addressing healthcare challenges that arise with aging.
