Skeena Journal on Geriatrics & Gerontology (SJGG)

Introduction: Geriatrics is a branch of medicine that focuses on the health care of older adults, addressing the complex medical and psychosocial issues associated with aging. It involves the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases and disabilities in elderly patients, with an emphasis on enhancing their quality of life.

Gerontology, on the other hand, is the multidisciplinary study of the aging process and the challenges that come with it. It encompasses various aspects of aging, including biological, psychological, social, and environmental factors. Gerontologists examine how aging affects individuals and societies, aiming to improve the well-being of older adults through research, policy development, and advocacy.

Together, geriatrics and gerontology work to promote healthy aging and ensure that older adults receive appropriate care and support.
