Abstract:

Care for the aging is a multidimensional endeavor requiring multiple professionals working and communicating in tandem, the authors contend. The perspectives of an internist, an occupational therapist, a social services worker, and a rehabilitation specialist are presented in order to show the ways in which these disciplines overlap in treating the elderly.
