Geriatric Care at Home
Geriatric care is the discipline of managing several conditions at once in one frail body, where the treatment for one problem often worsens another. It needs coordination more than it needs any single specialist.
CareGlobal delivers complete geriatric care plans across Mumbai, Navi Mumbai and Thane, held together by one accountable care manager.

How It Works
- Comprehensive assessment - medical, functional, nutritional, home safety
- Single written care plan shared with the family and treating doctors
- Caregiver or nurse deployed to the level of need identified
- Monthly review with adjustments as the patient's status changes
- Escalation pathway for acute illness, avoiding unnecessary admissions
Polypharmacy - the quiet risk
It is common for us to find an 80-year-old taking eleven medicines prescribed by four doctors who have never spoken to each other, several of them causing the drowsiness, dizziness or confusion being treated by yet another drug. We consolidate every prescription into one chart, flag duplications and interaction risks to the treating physician, and track what actually gets taken - which is often not what was prescribed.
Local Coverage & Context
In Mumbai, elderly patients frequently see specialists across three different hospitals in three different suburbs, and nobody holds the whole picture. Our care manager becomes that single point - carrying the consolidated chart to every appointment in Mumbai, Navi Mumbai or Thane, and making sure the discharge advice from one hospital actually reaches the doctor at the next.
