Conference Details
Clinical Updates in the Care of Older Adults is a four-day, evidence-based CME conference designed to help primary care clinicians navigate the increasingly complex care of older adults. Through timely clinical updates and practical, case-based education, the program will translate emerging research, evolving guidelines, and expert recommendations into strategies clinicians can apply directly in practice.
Sessions will address the issues that make caring for older adults both challenging and consequential, including multimorbidity, cognitive and functional decline, cardiovascular and metabolic disease, medication safety and deprescribing, mobility and fall prevention, frailty, cancer care, behavioral health, pain management, and transitions of care. Faculty will examine how age, prognosis, function, treatment burden, and patient priorities should influence screening, diagnostic, and therapeutic decisions.
Anchored in the Age-Friendly Health Systems 4Ms – What Matters, Medication, Mentation, and Mobility – the conference will equip clinicians to make more individualized, evidence-based decisions that preserve independence, reduce preventable harm, and improve quality of life.
