Coaching for hospitalists caring for complex older adults
What we work on
What we work on
- Reading baseline and reserve — judging how far a patient is from their usual self, and what that predicts.
- Frailty, delirium, and cognitive screening — and, just as important, how to interpret what you find.
- Medications: which to suspect first, which to avoid, and which ones are acceptable to use.
- How to manage the hospital stay to prevent avoidable harm.
- Non-drug measures for delirium, and what can be done to keep it from worsening.
- Predicting prognosis and discussing it with families and nursing staff, with confidence.
- Common geriatric problems that require admission.
- Guiding families through discharge planning.
Who it’s for
New hospitalists most of all — but just as useful for senior hospitalists refreshing their geriatrics, for residents, PAs, and nurses caring for older adults on the wards, and for anyone in acute care who wants to sharpen their geriatric knowledge.
The offer — founding clients
