OVERVIEW

Edinburgh International Course in Medicine of the Older Adult is organized by Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh (RCPE) and will be held from May 20 - 24, 2019 at Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, Scotland, United Kingdom. This Conference has been approved for a maximum of 23 CPD Credits.

Course Description:
This five-day course is aimed at physicians from around the world who specialise, or have a major interest, in the care of older people. The 2019 course will be held in our Conference Centre, and we will be focusing once again on the ‘geriatric giants’: 

• Mobility
• Cognition
• Continence
• Common comorbidities
• Frailty

Of particular value to doctors at consultant or senior trainee level, the course includes update lectures by experts on topics of current and practical relevance, with frequent opportunities for interactive case-based learning. Places are limited, thus maximising opportunities for networking. The course also features a popular social programme including a welcome reception with tours of the historic College buildings and a guided bus tour of Edinburgh’s historic medical sites. Half-days on Wednesday and Friday allow delegates to explore and enjoy our beautiful city.

 Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
