| Annotation | This document traces key developments in the care of older patients since the war, including the emergence of geriatric medicine and the trend to effective rehabilitation and care at home. The Health Authority in Kingston and Richmond seeks the development of specialist assessment units with specialist nursing and therapy services working closely with the general medical specialty. Also, sufficient hospital beds available for geriatric patients, and improved and common protocols developed by specialists and GPs (general practitioners) for respite care throughout the district. |
