Course Description

As frailty increases in an older adult, the benefits from certain therapies increase while risks increase. This video will discuss how healthcare professionals should address clinical inertia in patients requiring treatment intensification but also reduce the pill burden in those older adults who would benefit from a decrease in pharmacotherapy.
