What will I learn?

The Psychogeriatrics Course equips you with practical skills to identify and manage depression, dementia, delirium, anxiety, and psychosis in older adults. You'll learn targeted mental status assessments, how to apply tools like MoCA, GDS, CAM, and 4AT, and how to interpret essential lab tests and imaging.
