Demographic trends confirm what clinicians already know - they are
spending increasing amounts of time dealing with older people. This
new ABC provides an introduction to the new and increasing
challenges of treating older patients in a variety of
settings.


ABC of Geriatric Medicine provides an overview of
geriatric medicine in practice. Chapters are written by experts,
and are based on the specialty geriatric medicine curriculum in the
UK.

informative, and practical source of knowledge, with links to
further information and resources. It is an essential guide where
management of the ageing population is a major health issue - for
hospital and family doctors, students, nurses and other members of
the multi-disciplinary team.
