GERIATRIC PROGRAM FUND A gift to the GERIATRIC PROGRAM FUND at the Upstate Medical University Foundation will help support this valuable program, which is dependent on grant funding. Please consider a gift today.

University Geriatricians is the most comprehensive program of its kind in the area providing care for the needs of older people. It is comprised of a team of compassionate specialists who dedicate themselves to geriatric medical issues.

The team administers ongoing care when necessary, offers outpatient consultation services, and operates clinical services for the Alzheimer’s Disease Assistance Center of Central New York. The program provides patients and their families with a complete range of services including evaluation of the older adult’s medical, functional, cognitive and psychosocial problems.

In collaboration with the patient’s primary care physician, a holistic family approach is developed to assist family members in making various medical decisions in the care for their loved one.

This program can benefit a wide variety of seniors, including those who suffer from general frailty, chronic pain, falling, incontinence, memory loss, multiple chronic illnesses, and much more.

LinkAges is a new program at Upstate Medical University's College of Medicine, funded thru the Geriatric Program Fund, intended to improve geriatric care by advancing student-patient relationships. More >
