This effort is particularly important as the state prepares to deal with an aging population with a shortage of health care workers. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;These activities allow us to present best practices in interdisciplinary geriatric care,&#8221; Dr. Potter said. &#8220;This is essential because geriatric care by its nature is an interdisciplinary endeavor.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p><TABLE border=\"0\" width=\"250\" cellspacing=\"15\" cellpadding=\"10\" align=\"right\"><br \/>\n<TR><br \/>\n<TD><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\n<font face=\"arial\"><br \/>\n<B><br \/>\n&#8220;This program has really taken off and I think it&#8217;s excellent that UNMC is there to help meet this need,&#8221; Dr. Hageman said. &#8220;It truly is an example of how we help educate the state&#8217;s health care workforce.&#8221;<br \/>\n<\/B><br \/>\n<BR><\/p>\n<p align=\"right\">\n<font face=\"arial\" size=\"1\"><br \/>\nPat Hageman, Ph.D.<br \/>\n<\/P><br \/>\n<\/FONT><br \/>\n<\/TD><br \/>\n<\/TR><br \/>\n<\/TABLE>The topic of the Jan. 27 conference was pain management and it featured a panel discussion with several health care professionals discussing ways to manage pain. Previous evening conferences have focused on topics such as spinal stenosis and heart failure. <\/p>\n<p>By attending all the evening conferences, the annual two-day event and a series of Web-based modules, participants can earn up to 80 contact hours in two years to complete a mini-fellowship in geriatric care.  <\/p>\n<p>Matt Timm, M.D., operates a geriatric clinic in Pender. He attended the Jan. 27 session as well as last summer&#8217;s two-day conference. <\/p>\n<p>The interdisciplinary approach highlights elements of geriatric care he may not have thought of in his role as a physician, Dr. Timm said. <\/p>\n<p><TABLE border=\"0\" width=\"260\" cellspacing=\"5\" cellpadding=\"3\" align=\"right\"><br \/>\n<TR><br \/>\n<TD><br \/>\n<TABLE border=\"1\" width=\"250\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"5\" bgcolor=\"f7f4aa\"><br \/>\n<TR><br \/>\n<TD><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\n<font face=\"arial\"><br \/>\n<B><br \/>\nAbout NEBGEC<br \/>\n<\/B><br \/>\n<BR><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\n<font face=\"arial\" size=\"2\"><br \/>\nThe Nebraska Geriatric Education Center (NEBGEC ) is a consortium-based operation funded through the Health Resources Service Administration (HRSA) , Bureau of Health Professions. The NEBGEC consortium partners include the UNMC Colleges of Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, the School of Allied Health Professions, the Nebraska Health Care Association and the VA Nebraska-Western Iowa Health Care System.

Jan. 27 presentation by a clinical pharmacist discussing pain management tips was particularly informative. <\/p>\n<p>Kira Koch Larson &#8212; a therapist who counsels geriatric patients in Lexington &#8212; has attended several of the seminars and is working toward the mini-fellowship. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As a counselor, I find this unique training to be very important because there is a growing need for more mental health services for senior adults,&#8221; Larson said. <\/p>\n<p>Like Dr. Timm, Larson said she found the interdisciplinary approach useful.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Each health care professional in the audience may be more orientated towards a team approach in treatment planning and care delivery since we are being educated in other disciplines, as well our own,&#8221; Larson said.<\/p>\n<p>The turnout and response indicate that the program fills a vital need across the state, Dr. Hageman said, especially considering that the state&#8217;s aging population is particularly prominent in rural areas, which often lack health care workers. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This program has really taken off and I think it&#8217;s excellent that UNMC is there to help meet this need,&#8221; Dr. Hageman said. &#8220;It truly is an example of how we help educate the state&#8217;s health care workforce.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On one of the
