After participating in this program, participants will be better able to:

1. Identify older patients at risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs) and recognise the implications of UTIs for patients
2. Elucidate the link between UTIs, aging, menopause, pelvic floor dysfunction and urinary incontinence
3. Recall the reasons recurrent UTIs occur and why treatment failures occur
4. Review the different preventative and treatment options for UTIs
