Understanding the Revista Española de Geriatría y Gerontología (REGG)

Decades later, the REGG stands as a bridge between the pioneering efforts of early Spanish geriatricians and the modern, high-tech approaches of today’s genomic and precision medicine. It has chronicled the evolution of the specialty, documenting the shift from a hospital-centric view of geriatrics to a comprehensive model that includes community care, dependency prevention, and palliative care.

This dual focus ensures that the journal appeals to a wide audience, including physicians, nurses, psychologists, social workers, and occupational therapists. It reinforces the idea that treating an elderly patient requires looking beyond the symptoms to the person and their environment.
