UCLA 40th Annual UCLA Intensive Course in Geriatric Medicine & Board Review 2024

For the past 40 years, the UCLA Intensive Course in Geriatric Medicine has been a leader in providing physicians, pharmacists and other health professionals the essential knowledge and skills to care for older patients. The four-day course and board review in geriatric medicine emphasizes an evidence-based, practical and functional approach to the comprehensive care of older adults. The content and structure of the course are well-suited for health professionals who wish to enhance their ability to care for older adults.

The 40th Annual UCLA Intensive Course is presented concurrently with the 2024 Intensive Course in Geriatric Pharmacy and Board Review, and participants may attend sessions in either course. This program has been designed for geriatricians, internists, primary care and family medicine clinicians, hospitalists and intensivists, pharmacists, and other interested healthcare providers.

Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of the course, participants should be better able to:

• Apply principles of geriatric assessment, geriatric pharmacology, rehabilitation, and long-term care to the patient care setting
• Understand key aspects of neurology, cardiology, psychiatry, urology, hematology, gastroenterology, nephrology, endocrinology, pharmacology, and rheumatology as they apply to older patients
• Identify psychosocial problems related to aging and formulate an approach to these problems
• Recognize the major geriatric syndromes such as dementia, delirium, incontinence, pain management, osteoporosis, and explain the appropriate geriatric medicine approaches to them
