The correct answer is option C. "The patient's residence is cold due to a malfunctioning heater".

Explanation:

The GEMS Diamond is a four letter key that helps physicians to remember four important points for geriatric care. The "E" in the GEMS Diamond comes from Environmental Assessment. This refers that the physician must look at the patient’s home or surroundings to avoid any external element that could represent a harm for the patients health. One example could be that the patient's residence is cold due to a malfunctioning heater. In this case the heater must be repaired or the patient must be relocated to avoid any health complication resulted from an exposure to a cold environment.
