Government regulations in geriatric healthcare management are designed to ensure that older adults receive quality, safe, and equitable care while addressing their unique physical, psychological, and social needs. These regulations span legal, ethical, financial, and operational frameworks, and are implemented through policies, acts, guidelines, and oversight mechanisms that aim to protect older persons from neglect, abuse, and discrimination while promoting their well-being and autonomy. Understanding these regulations is critical for healthcare managers to design, implement, and monitor effective geriatric care services. One of the fundamental regulatory frameworks is the National Policy on Older Persons (NPOP), which serves as a guiding policy for government and non-governmental organizations in the management of geriatric healthcare. It emphasizes the rights of older adults, provision of adequate healthcare facilities, social security measures, and the promotion of active and healthy aging. NPOP encourages the integration of geriatric care into primary health services and the establishment of specialized geriatric units in hospitals. Healthcare managers must ensure compliance with NPOP guidelines while planning geriatric services and programs. The Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act is another pivotal legislation in many countries, including India. This Act mandates that children or relatives provide maintenance to older adults who are unable to sustain themselves financially. In healthcare management, this regulation affects planning by ensuring that older patients have legal backing for financial support, which can influence accessibility to healthcare services. Healthcare facilities often collaborate with social service departments to assist elderly patients in obtaining maintenance benefits or other entitlements. Regulations related to quality of care and patient safety are central in geriatric healthcare management. Government bodies such as the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare issue guidelines on standards for elderly care, which include protocols for medication management, prevention of hospital-acquired infections, fall prevention, nutritional care, and mental health support. Regulatory standards often mandate the creation of geriatric assessment units and interdisciplinary care teams
