Older Age Care

Health review and resource guidance for patients aged 65 and over

This page brings together older-age health themes that often matter in general practice, along with a small set of external resources patients and families may find useful when navigating aged-care related systems.

Older age care support

What this pathway can include

  • Comprehensive health review and preventive planning
  • Medication review and safety-focused discussion
  • Falls risk, mobility, and functional support
  • Vaccination and chronic disease review
  • Care coordination where several services or supports overlap

When to book a longer review

Older-age care appointments often involve several issues at once, including medications, mobility, chronic conditions, and support planning. A longer booking is usually more useful than a short routine slot when the review is broad.
