Book Abstract
Geriatrics Today: Innovations in Elderly Health Management provides a forward-thinking guide to smart, holistic elder care. By combining gerontechnology, interdisciplinary caregiving, and precision geriatrics, it lays out strategies to improve safety, autonomy, and well-being for older adults across the care continuum.
With populations aging worldwide, Geriatrics Today explores the intersection of emerging health challenges and innovative solutions in elder care. This volume underscores how technologies, integrated care frameworks, and age-focused workforce development are transforming elderly health management to promote independence, safety, and quality of life.
Home telemedicine, wearable sensors, and mobile platforms (e.g., ?iCare,? wHealth) support chronic disease management, fall detection, medication adherence, and emergency alerts, while reducing hospital admissions. Machine learning models predict functional decline, optimize polypharmacy, and manage frailty in elderly populations . Social companion robots, smart-home tech, automated reminders, and assistive devices support cognitive health, safety, and independence
