CARE LEVELS


For proper heath care is a need for adequate coordination of different stakeholders involved. It involves an interdisciplinary work.
  • Primary care
  • General Hospital
  • Geriatrics unit

It takes care of the vast majority of older people, developing activities of health promotion and preventive, curative, or rehabilitative.

The functions of this level:
  • Health Promotion
  • Assessment of health status
  • Preventive activities
  • Detection and early care
  • Tracking Task
  • Palliative cares

Sanitary education with the patients and their families:
  • Nursing cares.
  • Identification of signs and symptoms.

  • Evaluate the faults in home.
  • Sanitary education.
  • Healing.
  • Emotional support.

  • Tobacco, alcohol and drugs.
  • Prevention of falls.

  • Hypertension, diabetes, obesity, dementias, arthritis…

Health education to prevent the cancer:

  • Persistent cough.
  • Modification in intestinal habits.
  • Blood hides in feces.
  • Problems in the urination.




GENERAL HOSPITAL
It deals with the elderly patient who is not a geriatric patient, requiring input by a disease.


Nursing care:
  • Making constant
  • Cures
  • Sampling
  • Hygiene / demonstrations
  • Respiratory physiotherapy
  • Oxygen
  • Catheterization, nasogastric
  • Injectable


SPECIALIZED CARE
Geriatric services are interdisciplinary units to cater specifically to the "geriatric patients", as well as providing support to primary care and play activities of teaching. Acute Geriatric Unit is intended for geriatric patient admissions for comprehensive assessment and management of their acute or chronic diseases.



  1. The Geriatric Acute Unit: is for geriatric patients to evaluate them and heal their diseases (acutes or chronics).
  2. Half stay unit: to the reestablish the medical, surgical and functional process.
  3. Residence for the elderly: to patients that have chronic deterioration in their functional capacity and they can’t be maintained in their home.
  4. Geriatric Day Hospital: to weak patients that need physical recovery, sanitary cares and training in the daily activities.

In my opinion, I think that the health education is very important to prevent some diseases and to be a best prognostic because if a person knows how to avoid the risks it could be better for long time.
I believe that the family is very important because the must help to the elderly to identify the symptoms of the diseases to ask to the doctor early.
A disease caught in time has a better prognosis.
