responsibility to look into their health and happiness. With projects and
deadlines at office, sparing little time for elders is highly tough. Any how

fail and make a call to the hospital before start as a confirmation call for
the appointment.
If
they are comfortable walking, its fine or else Wait for the wheel chair or make
arrangements for it with the help of the hospital staff.
Carry water bottle, some snacks like fruits
or biscuits and their medicines with you. If there is some delay in meeting the
doctor, these will be handy.
Allow the elders to talk to the Doctors
personally and share their problems. So that it will be easy for the Doctor to diagnose
the condition.
