Regional Geriatric Programs of Ontario

Regional Geriatric Programs (RGPs) provide a comprehensive network of specialized geriatric services which assess and treat functional, medical, and psychosocial aspects of illness and disability in older adults who have multiple and complex needs. Working in collaboration with primary care physicians, community health professionals, and others they seek to meet the needs of the most frail and vulnerable seniors.

In 1986, RGPs were established at Academic Health Sciences Centres in Hamilton, Kingston, London, Ottawa and Toronto and together form the Ontario Provincial Network of Regional Geriatric Programs in 1986. This partnership in education, research and standards of practice is now a key element in the provincial framework of services meeting the needs of Ontario's aging population.
