Abstract:

Abstract Geriatrics care in medical intensive care units (MICU) establishes a unique opportunity in early screening of High Risk Elderly (HRE) patients admitted for critical care. Many MICUs do not have a standard protocol to screen for HRE patients as part of their daily huddle. Our program is a quality improvement initiative to improve early identification of HRE patients in the MICU. HRE patients were identified based on nursing specific screening triggers at one of the Regional Hospitals of a large teaching hospital in Northeast Ohio.The program was designed as a part of geriatrics care ex

Abstract:

Background Cultivating hospital environments that support older people’s care is a national priority. Evidence on geriatric nursing practice environments, obtained from studies of registered nurses (RNs) in American teaching hospitals, may have limited applicability to Canada, where RNs and registered practical nurses (RPNs) care for older people in predominantly nonteaching hospitals. Purpose This study describes nurses’ perceptions of the overall quality of care for older people and the geriatric nursing practice environment (geriatric resources, interprofessional collaboration, and organiza

Abstract:

Background: In India, aging population is increasing every year. So, healthcare industry needs to set up a geriatric unit soon. Development of geriatrics and old-age care systems in India will make elderly people independent and improve their lifestyle, life expectancy, and quality of life while decreasing the cost of care. This study looks at the views of patients who are 60 years or older, as well as need for a full-fledged geriatric unit in a tertiary care hospital. Methods: This study used questionnaires to get information from patients about the need for a geriatric care service in the ch

Abstract:

Objective: Nosocomial infections (NIs) are major health problems with morbidity and mortality. Geriatric patients require intensive care unit (ICU) admission more frequently, and serious challenges occur during treatment. We aimed to evaluate the risk factors of NI and mortality in geriatric patients admitted to the ICU. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted between April 2018 and April 2019 in two hospitals. We prospectively recorded the data on the forms prepared according to daily ICU visits. Results: During the study period, 600 patients were hospitalized in the ICUs. Geriatric pa

Abstract:

Hospital care of frail older adults is far from optimal. Although some geriatric models of care have been shown to improve outcomes, the effect size is small and models are difficult to fully implement, sustain and replicate. The two root causes for these shortcomings are competing interests (high revenue generating diseases, procedures and surgeries) and current hospital cultures (for example a culture of safety that emphasizes bed alarms and immobility rather than frequent ambulation). Geriatric hospitals would be hospitals completely dedicated to the care of frail older patients, a group wh

SummaryThe status of the geriatric day hospital within the National Health Service (NHS) in the UK has changed significantly over the past fifty years. We conducted a literature review starting from the inception of the geriatric day hospital, when it was viewed as the ‘shop front for geriatric services’ and was subsequently replicated in many western health systems, to the present uncertainty surrounding the model in terms of outcomes and cost effectiveness.

Abstract:

For centuries, man has been concerned about health, particularly to achieve successful aging. In this process of health and illness, often the elderly were dying in the attempt to improve, and those requiring more care, it was not possible to do at home, so they sought the help of others, most of whom were Monasteries, which later gave way to hospices, Nurse Homes and Hospitals.

Abstract:

Before the 1930s chronic sick, elderly hospital patients were often medically neglected: they were not properly examined or treated but received 'benign guardianship' and expected a 'bed for life'. The first doctors interested in geriatric medicine showed that many such patients, previously considered untreatable, could be treated and remobilised. These doctors had to contend with considerable ignorance: 'not only is the problem of the treatment of the chronic sick not being met, but also most people do not realise there is a problem.' 1.

Abstract:

The current literature suggests one of the challenges of nursing today is to meet the health care needs of the growing older population, people over the age of 65. Quality of nursing is important for acutely ill older people who are the largest group of patients in terms of hospital admissions. The ageing population is a major focus for social and economic planners and policy makers. There is an increasing need for health systems to change their focus to more closely assess strategies used to manage the acutely ill older hospital population. The main aim of this study was to improve the qualit
