Older patients!
Seeing so many older patients, good to brush up on their main health concerns and the meds they're taking: the med lists are getting longer

Elderly meds
So confusing and scary to see the length of lists of drugs that so many geriatric patients have on their health histories. This course helped categorize them and give me a good handle on recognizing what they're prescribed for.

Elderly meds
Helpful breakdown of the many drugs our elderly patients are taken. Can't believe how many drugs are being prescribed for older patients.
