Web-Based Resources for Geriatric Emergency Medicine
The Department of Emergency Medicine and the Department of Geriatrics at Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine have implemented a geriatric emergency medicine curriculum and a one-month elective. The goal of this collaboration is for our residents to acquire the knowledge and skills needed to provide emergency care for acutely ill or injured elderly adults. Below are some resources/links to information about geriatric emergency medicine.
