Conditions

Older People

Summary

* Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) can accelerated the aging process and increase the frailty condition * The Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) is the gold standard in the geriatric clinical context * Recently, in Italy the first Guidelines about the CGA in different settings for older people has been pubblicated * The CGA can identify older people at high risk of frailty who can benefit from a personalized prevention program * No studies has been investigated the effects of a personalized prevention program (PPP) based on the CGA in a primary care setting * The main hypothesis is that the CGA assessment can result in personalized prevention programs for older subjects in primary care settings with an effect in reducing the hospitalization rate and can be related to the biological paramters in NCDs

Patients will be evaluated at baseline and at 6 and 12 months after the baseline through the CGA, the Resilience Scale (RS-14 items) and the Psychological General Wellbeing Index short form.
