Provides specialized services to older adults experiencing multiple medical issues and who may be at risk of losing their ability to live independently.
The Specialized Seniors Clinic does not replace your family doctor or nurse practitioner and usually does not manage long-term follow-up.
Who we help
We support older adults who may be dealing with:
- chronic disease (for example, dementia, depression)
- risk of falls, or history of falling
- difficulty managing medications
- changes in the ability to live independently
- caregiver stress or challenges
Our approach
Our interdisciplinary team works with clients, families and their caregivers to provide:
- Comprehensive screening and assessment
- Personalized treatment and care planning
- Education and mentoring for older adults, families and professional caregivers
Each team member brings specialized skills. For example:
- A pharmacist helps manage complex medication regimens.
- A social worker supports overwhelmed caregivers.
