Acute geriatrics

In acute geriatrics we not only support older people to overcome an acute illness but also to retain and improve their abilities needed to go about their daily life.  We do this according to a holistic approach and have had many years of experience.  

Range of services
Older people often have several diseases and handicaps at the same time:   

  • cardiovascular illnesses 
  • respiratory tract illnesses 
  • metabolic disorders 
  • degenerative or chronic inflammatory changes of the musculoskeletal system 
  • neurological illnesses 

Added to this is often a psychosocial feeling of uncertainty which increases with old age, a decline in mental fitness, growing isolation due to the loss of relatives, difficulties in coping with day-to-day life.
