ABSTRACT
Aging is an unavoidable part of life. Every human must go through the aging process. A decline in organ function is a part of the aging process that leads to various health-related challenges. These healthcare challenges may require critical care. The uniqueness of the aged population needs to be considered to provide adequate and satisfactory care befitting this subset of clients seeking critical care. Using the elder-friendly approach, improved care tailored to meet the demands of increased organ support can be achieved in the intensive care unit.
