BOOK YOUR PLACE AT INTERFACE GERIATRICS – 5 March 2010, London

The RCGP and the BGS are holding a one day conference to examine different models of delivering comprehensive geriatric management across primary and secondary care.

This event has been organised in recognition of the fact that the acute care of frail older people has changed dramatically over the last decade.  Where previously both acute and sub-acute care was delivered primarily in hospital settings, sub-acute care is now being provided in a variety of community settings and by a range of professionals.  The day will include:

• Expert perspectives from acute medicine, geriatric medicine, emergency medicine, general practice, multidisciplinary teams and community matrons
• Examples of evidence-based good practice
• Workshop sessions for primary and secondary care practitioners to define optimal models of care
