The problem of unavailability of time by the family members and the typical ‘nothing-has-happened’ geriatric feeling distresses the forth comings. To ease it all, for the first time with dedicated geriatrics wellness management, 2015-founded Grand World Elder Care (GWEC) enables gen next to deliver appropriate health care at home for their elders.
