Geriatricians are doctors that specialize in providing medical care for older adults. They start by assessing the person to find out what medical conditions they may have. They also review their medications and care needs. They then make suggestions for care options and services in the community. There are many reasons someone should see a geriatrician such as a change in their ability to move around (walk etc.), an increase in falling or a change in their thinking skills. Geriatricians are also crucial members of our provincial health care team. In this episode of the DocTalks Podcast, host Ian Gillespie interviews St. Joseph’s President and CEO Roy Butler and Chief of Geriatrics Dr. Sheri-Lynn Kane to understand when people should seek geriatric care and what St. Joseph's is doing to prepare for the tsunami of older adults needing health care.
