the “Discover the World of Geriatric Medicine” Abu Dhabi geriatric medicine conference 5 May 2017

the First conference to focus mainly on the core aspects of Geriatric Medicine specialty to be held in Abu Dhabi. 

No doubt that elderly population is among the fastest growing age groups as the youngest “Baby Boomers” is 53 years old this years. This carries a challenge as there is no enough physicians who are specialized in geriatric medicine worldwide and in specifically in UAE. That is why delivering and teaching geriatric medicine concept and skills to non-geriatricians was considered as acceptable way to overcome this obstacle. So, in this conference we will try to introduce the correct concept of geriatric medicine through different lectures which will give the audience the approach to many of geriatric syndromes and problems which include spectrum of cognitive problems, mobility problems and falls, neuropsychiatric issues in elderly, several medical and surgical issue which are common in elderly…etc. 

Nevertheless, we have to acknowledge the previous workshops and conferences related directly or indirectly to geriatric medicine held in UAE by other organizations which contributed significantly to elderly care
