Abstract
It can be argued that person-centred medicine is more important in old age than it is in young or middle age. The older patient is in many respects more of an individual than he was in his younger age as life experiences including diseases have shaped each person for a long time. For evaluation of an older person, the team approach has been shown to be the most efficient method. Cognitive factors and social support must be addressed specifically.
