Senior Diseases

Be Patient. Remember that most seniors have slower reflexes, bad memory, and short tempers.

Be Observant. Some patients may be too shy (or proud) to tell you exactly what they feel.

Consult a Specialist. Go to a doctor regularly. If your patient has a special illness, bring him/her to a specialist ASAP.

Be Careful of Infections. Always keep your patient’s surroundings and things clean as they are prone to infections.

Be Careful about Dosages. Giving older patients the wrong dosage may be fatal or can cause complications.
