Geriatric rehabilitation aims to promote health and treat diseases and disabilities in older adults. It involves a team-based approach including physical therapists, occupational therapists, and other specialists. The goals are to prevent impairments, maintain function, and help individuals live as independently as possible through their lifespan. Physical therapy for older adults requires special skills to address aging-related changes and optimize mobility and quality of life.
The care of older adult is crucial in the present scenario. there are changes that occur in all aspects in the late years of life. the presentation explains the comprehensive changes and their effective management by health care personal.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

1. Introduction in the principle
of geriatric rehabilitation
BY DR/ KHALED ALSAYANI
2. Gerontology• This is the study of the aging
process itself. The study of physical and
psychological changes which are incident to the
old age is call gerontology.
Geriatrics • Geriatrics is the branch of internal
medicine that focuses on health care of the
elderly. It aims mainly to promote health and to
diagnosis , prevent and treat diseases and
disabilities in older adults.
Gerontology
3. AGING
Aging can be defined as a progressive and generalized impairment
of function resulting in the loss of adaptive response to stress and
increased risk of age related diseases.
The overall effect of these alterations is an increase in the probability
of declining health and dying.
is the accumulation of Irreversible changes in a person over time.
4. Definition of elderly
Most developed world countries ( include USA) have accepted the
chronological age of 65 years as a definition of 'elderly' or older person.
there is no United Nations standard numerical criterion, but the UN agreed
cutoff is 60+ years to refer to the older population
5. Categories of old age definitions
Chronology
Change in social role how people should act as they grow
older (i.e. change in work patterns, adult status of children and
menopause).
Change in capabilities
(i.e. senility and change in physical characteristics).
6. Young old (60,65–75).
Old (75–85)
Old- old (85+)
Classification of elderly
PT. is aimed at
primary prevention
of diseases
PT is directed at the
improvement in function
status
PT is concentrated on
achievement of human
comfort(PM. Positioning )
7. Geriatric physical therapy
An area of specialization that requires a specific set of advanced skills and
knowledge that addresses the aging process.
Specialists in geriatric physical therapy understand the differences between
‘normal’ aging and pathological changes that commonly occur in the older adult.
Assisting the geriatric client can be hard task because of multisystem
involvement and multiple comorbidities.
Special considerations such as psychosocial issues, environmental, frailty,
nutritional, pharmacological and cultural factors must be accounted for in a
successful rehabilitation process.
8. Geriatric physical therapy role
The primary goal of geriatric physical therapy is to prevent, maintain or
rehabilitate an impairment or functional limitation
Assisting the individual to return to optimal living within their capabilities.
To achieve the highest level of functional mobility as possible within their
environment while maintaining safety.
Enabling the older adult to enjoy a longer life by living it more
independently and with less pain.
9. combating and minimizing the accumulative disabling effects of
physical illness in association with the aging process.
Providing education for the patient and caregivers.
Contributing to the comfort and well-being of the patient.
