A geriatric assessment involves a multi-disciplinary approach to assess an older adult’s emotional, mental, physical, and psychological health. Other things that a geriatric assessment could involve include a patient’s living conditions, family involvement, financial situation, and social life. In general, geriatric assessments aim to evaluate and find ways to improve an older adult’s quality of life. With that in mind, many of the same reasons for seeing a geriatric doctor apply to have a geriatric assessment. As such, if you are over 65 and are experiencing any of the symptoms or situations listed above, you may benefit from having a geriatric assessment.
