Why is it important to weigh and measure older adults at each medical visit?

Describe the principles of effective communication with older adults. Why is nonverbal communication so important?

The role of a medical assistant when caring for aging patients is to maintain proper control of vital signs and key physiological ranges while providing aid for everyday tasks.

A proper following of the weight and height of older adults at each medical visit is of vital importance to determine if they are within a normal range. If these values are not normal, they may be indicative of a disease.

Adaptations must be made for medication regarding geriatric patients due to the fact that their diminished capabilities in processing the medication can easily lead to intoxication if not taken into account.  

Finally, the principle of effective communication is to use both verbal and nonverbal communication to ensure that the message was understood fully by the patient and increase the likelihood of them following the treatment.
