Acute Care for the Elderly


Acute Care for the Elderly is a geriatric consultation service that seeks to improve the care of vulnerable older patients (over age 65) who are hospitalized at Froedtert Hospital. The goal is to reduce the impact of hospitalization on a patient and maximize function and health. This is done by screening patients who are at high risk of complications while in the hospital and providing consultation to patients and care teams that request it. All members of the patient’s care team are involved, including physicians, nurses, social workers, therapists, pharmacists, dietitians, and the patient and family.

Geropsychiatrists are trained in the mental health needs and specific syndromes faced by older adults. They specialize in disorders such as Alzheimer’s dementia, delirium, other conditions that affect memory and the ability to function in daily activities of life, and late-life depression, anxiety and psychotic disorders.
