Senior Services

Seniors Services at Mackenzie Health provides comprehensive geriatric assessments to evaluate and identify the medical, functional and social disabilities of older adults.

Seniors Services (outpatient) Referral

Physician referral is required. Please fax referrals to 905-883-0772.

Once the referral is received, the eligibility for the Seniors Wellness Clinic or the Geriatrics Outreach Team will be determined.

Seniors Wellness Clinic

The goals of this team are to maintain seniors at their highest level of function, promote independence and minimize hospital visits. The team consists of nurses, secretaries and geriatricians who will be part of the clinic assessment.

Please note that upon arrival at the hospital, patients should register in Patient Registration first and then go to the office in B-Wing, Room 2965.

Geriatric Outreach Team

The goals of this team are to maintain seniors at their highest level of function, promote independence and minimize hospital visits. The team consists of nurses, social workers and occupational therapists who will visit the older adult in their home to complete an assessment and connect them with available supports in the community. The team works with a geriatrician through the Seniors Wellness Clinic.
