A new service dedicated to the elderly is now available at the Regina Apostolorum Hospital in Albano Laziale: the Geriatrics Outpatient Clinic, aimed at the over-65 population. It is led by Dr. Fabrizio Gigli, a specialist in geriatrics, with the goal of offering comprehensive and personalized care.
The new clinic focuses on distinguishing true cognitive decline from similar conditions such as depression, hypothyroidism, or osteoarthritis. According to Dr. Gigli, an in-depth and personalized clinical assessment is essential. In cases of serious conditions, patients may be referred to UVA Centers (Alzheimer’s Evaluation Units).
The services offered include geriatric visits, cognitive, neuropsychological, and multidimensional assessments. The clinic is open every Friday from 2:30 PM to 6:30 PM. The initiative aims to improve the quality of life for the elderly and support their families. It promotes active aging, with attention to both physical and emotional health.
This service becomes a new point of reference for the local community. The project is part of the hospital’s commitment to strengthen local healthcare services. It is a tangible sign of care for the most vulnerable segments of the population.
An important opportunity to face age-related changes with competence and compassion. Regina Apostolorum thus reaffirms its mission of care and innovation. A significant step forward for community healthcare in the Castelli Romani area.
