Elder Care
Comprehensive, evidence-based care delivered by experienced specialists using advanced medical technology.
BOOK APPOINTMENTAbout the Department
Elder Care at Nano Hospitals focuses on the comprehensive healthcare needs of older adults. This specialty addresses age-related medical conditions, mobility challenges, memory concerns, and overall well-being to help seniors maintain independence and quality of life.
As people age, they may experience multiple health issues such as joint pain, balance problems, memory decline, vision or hearing loss, and chronic illnesses like diabetes or heart disease. These conditions often require coordinated care rather than treatment of a single problem. At Nano Hospitals, elder care is designed to provide holistic, respectful, and continuous support tailored to the unique needs of senior patients.
Care follows a patient-centred and family-inclusive approach, combining medical management, rehabilitation, nutritional guidance, mental health support, and preventive care. Treatment plans are personalised according to functional ability, lifestyle, and long-term health goals.
Overview of Elder Care
Geriatric care focuses on preventing, diagnosing, and managing health conditions common in older adults. Early recognition of mobility decline, memory changes, or increased fall risk can significantly improve long-term outcomes.
Nano Hospitals emphasises preventive screenings, chronic disease management, fall prevention, and rehabilitation to support safe and active ageing.
