Geriatric medicine is a growing medical specialty that focuses on the care and treatment of older people. Older age involves a distinct set of challenges. Many older people are living with multiple long-term conditions and are much more vulnerable to a range of problems. Your reactions to medication also change in older age. A geriatrician is a specialist when it comes to how different conditions interact with one another, how various medications will affect you, and how to spot the signs of potential problems such as vulnerability to falls. Geriatricians see patients with a wide range of common conditions, most of which are chronic disease such as diabetes, hypertension, coronary heart disease, dementia, and even depression. Geriatricians work alongside different specialties to plan and coordinate patients’ care. They can work in many different medical settings, but are mainly based in hospital outpatient wards like GP visits. One of the key roles a geriatrician plays is in carrying out a comprehensive medical assessment. When you go to the GP (general practitioner), you might have a number of complaints, not all of which can necessarily be addressed fully. A geriatrician’s job is to work out the most important problems you face, including those you haven’t identified yourself, and to put together a program of individualized care. A geriatrician’s work is a complex balancing act, and listening to your priorities and the things that are most important for you in life is a key part of the role. Geriatricians are also important when planning your care after an operation or accident. They will work with clinicians as well as social care staff to plan your care and help you maintain your independence. Geriatricians are also trained to talk to patients towards the end of their life and help them make appropriate plans. This can include setting out treatment preferences in advance and planning care at the very end of life.

如果文章描述一位專業人員的主要任務是「協調各科照護計畫」、「評估慢性病交互影響」以及「規劃術後康復」，那麼在邏輯上，這位專業人員是傾向於「負責開刀的外科醫師」，還是「統籌病患整體生活品質的管理員」？請從這個角色的定位出發，推論他最不可能執行的動作是什麼。
