This book introduces the student and practising physiotherapist to the multi-faceted components of the care and treatment of elderly patients and presents a problem-orientated approach to physiotherapy, assessment and management. Care of the elderly demands a dynamic and responsible approach and this book will help to improve therapy skills. The authors describe appropriate physiotherapy practice together with the pathology and medicine of old age. There is also consideration of social and psychological issues. Working with elderly people in the community as well as in hospital is reviewed.
