Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment Manual

A Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) is a thorough evaluation used to understand an older person's health, abilities, and living situation. It considers physical health, mental well-being, medications, mobility, social support, and daily activities. The goal is to identify health issues early, create personalized care plans, and improve quality of life. CGA involves healthcare professionals working together to ensure older adults receive appropriate treatments and support tailored to their unique needs and circumstances.
