The Center for Geriatric Health at Newark Beth Israel Medical Center is a widely recognized program designed to provide assessment and primary health care for the adult 65 & older. Total health care on an outpatient basis enables the patient to live independently at home and to enhance his or her quality of life.

The uniqueness of the program lies in its multidisciplinary approach to providing medical care for seniors. A team of specially-trained geriatricians provides primary care to patients, and if necessary, will make referrals to sub-specialty physicians located on-site at the medical center.   

At the Center for Geriatric Health Care we provide the care that help seniors live longer, healthier lives.  That care includes:

  • geriatric assessment and primary care

  • physicians on-call 24 hours a day

  • specialty services including ophthalmology, podiatry, cardiology, urinary tract care, geriatric falls prevention program and healthy mind (dementia) program

  • house calls for the home-bound

  • geriatric inpatient unit

  • Adult Day Health Care Center

  • free enrollment in the Senior Health Membership Program for people ages 50 and older

  • transportation assistance for medical appointments at the Center for Geriatric Health Care
