ABSTRACT
Geriatric patients' distinct physiological responses to diseases and treatments, combined with multimorbidity and polypharmacy, make their care highly challenging. This case study examines the complex management of a 77-year-old female with multiple comorbidities, focusing on the primary issue of splenic hematoma leading to anemia. It highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in geriatric care. The care she received underscores the necessity of ongoing supervision through the Bridge Model of Transitional Care, family engagement in the care process, and a customized, interdisciplinary approach to care. The conclusion of this case has implications for geriatric medicine, primary care, and specialty care, and it also influences strategies to help older adults maintain their functional status and quality of life.
