La obra comienza dando importancia a papel activo que pueden ejercer el propio paciente y su entorno en la mejora de la calidad de su salud, centrándose en temas como el envejecimiento saludable, el cuidado centrado en el mayor y la sexualidad en las personas mayores. A continuación, se aborda la enfermedad, con varios capítulos dedicados a los síndromes (inmovilismo, caídas, aislamiento social y soledad, incontinencia urinaria, estreñimiento, desnutrición y disfagia). Más adelante se tratan las alteraciones cognitivas y sensoriales, el dolor, las situaciones agudas de urgencia, las lesiones cutáneas y los procesos crónicos, para acabar el tratado con un capítulo dedicado a los principios bioéticos aplicados en el cuidado geriátrico. Por último, se ofrecen cuatro casos clínicos con respuestas razonadas, para llevar al lector de la teoría a la práctica. Julia González Vaca, Carmen Sarabia Cobo, Rosa Martínez Sellarés y Misericordia García Hernández lideran en esta obra a un experto equipo de autores formado por profesionales y docentes del ámbito gerontológico.
