Our team includes experts in surgery, anesthesiology, nursing, psychiatry, geriatrics, and care management.

Delirium is the most common issue older adults face after surgery. We work closely with these patients to help improve their health before surgery and to ensure they have support after discharge from the hospital. While patients recover in the hospital after surgery, we monitor their progress and offer extra care as needed. Our approach to recovery is holistic. We work closely with services such as Healing Arts and Spiritual Health.
