Specialized Geriatrics Services
Specialized Geriatric Services (SGS) are designed to help avert/decrease hospitalization stays and support clients to remain/transition safely back to their home/LTC within the community. Services are designed to provide specialized assessments that may support a diagnosis, education for capacity building, increased coordination and collaboration between care systems, and ensuring people have access to the services and resources that best suit their needs.
HDGH offers two SGS outpatient services that utilize the same referral form and process. Through a coordinated approach HDGH SGS staff will decide on the most appropriate service.
