Answer:

The correct answer is:

a clergy member

Explanation:

Geriatric medicine is a branch of medicine concerned with the prevention of disease or disabilities and the treatment of elderly people or older adults.

First of all, the question asked us to identify the nonmedical professional in the list that can be a part of the geriatric team, and all in the list, except 'a clergy member' are medical professionals, hence the answer.

Secondly, in the treatment of a geriatric patient, moral, theological or ethical issues may arise, for example, most religion do not encourage blood transfusion, hence in the team, a moralist, and ethicist or a clergy member is included to help prevent violation of the moral or ethical issues as relating to the patient.
