Aging can be a difficult process to cope with. Most newly diagnosed cancers occur in older adults, and it is important to understand a patient’s underlying health status during making treatment decisions.
We, at V Care Cancer Center provide geriatric assessment, which provides a detailed evaluation of medical, psychosocial, and functional problems in older patients with cancer. Specifically, it can identify areas of vulnerability, predict survival and toxicity, assist in clinical treatment decisions, and guide interventions in routine oncology practice.
