As older adults increasingly become the primary users of health and social care services, the need for health and social care professionals with specific knowledge in this area has never been greater.

Written by experienced clinicians and academics, the book integrates key considerations across physical, psychological, and social dimensions of care, offering a clear and engaging foundation for anyone committed to enhancing the quality of care for older adults in diverse settings.
