Growing Older in the Emergency Department -- Components of an effective Geriatric Emergency Department -- Cognitive Impairment in the ED -- Syncope in a rural emergency department setting -- ER referrals and hospitalizations from Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Facilities -- Can Home Visits Make a Difference to Emergency Department Visits? "I will just stop by his place on the way home: Who knew it would be a journey?" -- Medication Errors in Aging Adults: A Case-Based Approach to Medication Management -- Pain, Opioid Use, and Palliative Care of Older Adults in the Emergency Department -- Acute Mental Status Changes and Over-the-Counter Medications in Older Adults -- Identifying fall risk in the Emergency Department -- Capacity, Advanced Planning, and Buying Time.

This book introduces the unique medical needs of aging patients in the emergency department and outlines the challenges that leave many clinicians struggling to adequately care for this demographic, including limited resources, management concerns, and other barriers. The text presents strategies for screening, diagnosing, and treating geriatric syndromes seen in the emergency care of the older adult patient. Topics include pharmacological interventions, transitioning care, and sustainability. The text includes complex cases that demonstrate the caution necessary to treat this delicate patient group. Each case concludes with a set of concise “take-home points” to make the guidelines easy to remember and/or reference. Geriatric Emergencies: A Case-Based Approach to Improving the Acute Care of Seniors is an excellent resource for geriatricians, emergency medicine specialists, internal medicine physicians, hospitalists, nurses, social workers, students, residents, trainees, and all medical professionals working with older patients in an emergency setting.
