Rehabilitation in Geriatric Trauma Patients

Rehabilitation for geriatric trauma patients involves a tailored approach to help older adults recover from injuries, such as fractures or falls. It includes physical therapy to improve strength and mobility, occupational therapy to regain daily living skills, and sometimes emotional support to cope with the trauma. The goal is to enhance their independence and quality of life while considering their unique health challenges, such as chronic conditions or cognitive changes. This process is essential for helping older adults safely return to their routines and minimizing the risk of future injuries.
