The increment in ageing ratios, mainly in developed countries, and the increment in life expectancy, 83 years-of-age for Spanish women, have created a new caring scenery in health care confronting the "Geriatrisation of Medicine" and social care dealing with systems covering the needs of an aged population pertaining to a society whose family nucleus meets increasing difficulties for attending their elderly members. An efficacious geriatric care system should be based on solid hospital care, community oriented care and integration of health and social care, always aimed towards functional recovery of the individual and the integration of elderly people in their communities.
老龄化比率的上升，主要在发达国家，以及预期寿命的增加，西班牙女性为83岁，这在医疗保健领域创造了一种新的护理景象，面临着“医学老年化”，以及社会护理要应对覆盖老年人口需求的系统，而在这些社会中，核心家庭照顾老年成员面临着越来越多的困难。一个有效的老年护理系统应基于坚实的医院护理、以社区为导向的护理以及健康与社会护理的整合，始终致力于个人的功能恢复以及老年人融入其社区。
