Adapted Approach for Elderly in Hospital Setting Training

What will I learn?
You will gain a thorough understanding of how ageing affects physiology, cognition, and psychosocial wellbeing, and how those changes shape clinical decision-making. You will learn to conduct comprehensive geriatric assessments, apply validated screening tools, and translate findings into actionable care plans. The course covers evidence-based strategies for preventing delirium, pressure ulcers, falls, and functional decline. You will develop adapted communication techniques for patients with hearing loss, dementia, or aphasia. Medication reconciliation, polypharmacy management, and safe deprescribing are addressed in depth. You will also build skills in nutrition and dysphagia care, pain management, and coordinated discharge planning that supports safe community reintegration.
