Monthly Case Conference Presentations:
These monthly conferences consist of a 15-20 minute discussion of a geriatric medicine topic followed by one or two patient cases presented by staff from primary care clinics. Geriatric specialists provide the brief didactic and the panel for the case discussion. Each panel includes a geriatrician, geriatric psychiatrist, pharmacist, social worker and primary care liaison (community services representative). Only the didactic components are posted to protect patient confidentiality. Submit a case for review.
