Nati Eliav
Physiotherapist
Geriatrics, the third age
Expert physiotherapist for the elderly, with over 30 years of experience. I have worked in hospital departments, young and adult rehabilitation centers, as well as geriatric rehabilitation. I successfully managed the field of physiotherapy in a nursing home for 20 years. I believe that a person’s natural environment is the key contributor to their rehabilitation, and that environment is their home. I maintain the dignity and wishes of the patient while encouraging them to achieve independent functionality. I assess and guide primary caregivers on everything required to ensure the patient’s optimal quality of life, including recommending suitable equipment and providing training.

Maria Katz
social worker
Maria Katz, Social Worker, Specialist in Housing Arrangements. Guidance and support for adapting living environments in old age.
I specialize in the connection between older adults and their homes, based on the understanding that the experience of “home” is existential and not merely a physical space. The relationship between an older adult and their environment significantly impacts their quality of life in terms of privacy, respect, affection, security, autonomy, belonging, and meaning. I have studied the importance of assessing and adapting living environments for older adults. I support seniors contemplating a move to assisted living, families exploring housing options for their parents, and relatives bearing caregiving responsibilities. Together, we enhance the feeling of “this is my home,” whether at their current residence or in an adapted living environment.
