In 1848, George Day, in the introduction to his book on aging, wrote he made no apology for the text as physicians did not understand how to care for the diseases of older persons (1). In 1914, Ignatz Leo Nascher introduced the term geriatrics (2). It was Marjory Warren who introduced what was the basis of modern geriatric rehabilitation in 1935 (3). The concept that aggressive rehabilitation for persons with functional problems, could improve outcomes was solidified by Laurence Rubenstein et al (4) with their publication on the success of the Geriatric Evaluation and Management Unit for treating persons with deficits in activities of daily living. …
