Very good talk by @DrMqAgMas on the future of Geriatric Hospital at Home. Expanding these services is essential to bring comprehensive, person centred geriatric care closer to where older adults want to be: at home. #SEGG2026 #SOCANGER #Geriatrics #HospitalAtHome @seggeriatria – at Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain
