The 2018 AGS Annual Scientific Meeting has concluded and was a great success in providing the latest information on clinical care, research on aging, and innovative models of care delivery. But even though the meeting is over, the knowledge isn't! Subscribers to GeriatricsCareOnline have free access to handouts from the Annual Meeting for one year. Check them out today!
With support from The John A. Hartford Foundation, the American Geriatrics Society (AGS) today launched ortho.agscocare.org, a site providing resources and tools for hospitals interested in implementing the AGS CoCare: Ortho model. By helping health systems integrate geriatric and orthopedic expertise as soon as possible, AGS CoCare: Ortho seeks to improve care and lower health costs for the 260,000 older adults hospitalized annually with hip fractures.
The AGS has released the 9th edition of the Geriatrics Review Syllabus (GRS) Audio Companion. This compendium of interviews with GRS9 chapter authors and contributors provides discussions on current issues in aging, best practices in approaching older patients, care systems, syndromes, psychiatry, and diseases and disorders. The audio companion also provides participants with the opportunity to earn 35 CME credits and 35 ABIM MOC points.
