Can Dementia be Delayed? What you need to know to counsel your older patients -- Targeting Enhanced Services toward High-Cost, High-Need Medicare Patients -- Challenges to Diagnosis and Management of Infections in Older Adults -- Evaluating and Treating Urinary Incontinence among Older Adults -- To Fall is Human: Falls, Gait, and Balance in Older Adults -- Should Your Older Adult Patient Be Driving? -- Making House Calls: Treating Older Adults at Home -- Aging in Place: Selecting and Supporting Caregivers of the Older Adult -- Post-Hospitalization Rehabilitation Facilities and Options for Care -- Utilizing Geriatric Assessments to Fulfill the Medicare Annual Wellness Visits.

This book is designed to present the clinical geriatric trends within general internal medicine and family practice, which practitioners often encounter in caring for their older adult patients. Chapters focus on increasingly difficult clinical decisions that practitioners have to make in caring for older adults, who often experience medical complications due to memory loss, physical disability, and multiple chronic conditions. Written by experts in geriatric medicine, each of these chapters start with the most up-to-date clinical geriatric research and provide specific examples or case studies on how to use this information to address the clinical needs of older adult patients. In addition, there is a set of concise "take-home points" for each chapter that are easy to commit to memory and implement in clinical care of aging patients. As the only book to focus on current trends in geriatric research and evidence-based eldercare practice, Clinical Trends in Geriatric Medicine is of great value to internists, family practitioners, geriatricians, nurses, and physician assistants who care for older adults.
