Synopsis "Geriatric Medicine Fundamentals: A Step-by-Step Guide to Functional Assessment, Cognitive Care, Medication Review, and Care Planning"

Geriatric Medicine Fundamentals is a practical guide for learning how to care for older adults with clarity, structure, and clinical purpose. Geriatric care often begins with a change: a fall, new confusion, weight loss, weakness, missed medications, caregiver concern, or loss of independence. The diagnosis matters, but the larger question is just as important: How is this change affecting function, safety, daily life, and future care? A Step-by-Step Guide to Older-Adult CareStart with function Assess mobility, activities of daily living, gait, falls risk, nutrition, continence, pain, sleep, home safety, and the ability to manage daily routines. Evaluate cognition and mood Approach memory concerns, delirium, dementia, depression, behavioral changes, caregiver observations, and differences between baseline function and acute change. Review medications carefully Identify polypharmacy, adverse effects, drug interactions, high-risk prescriptions, adherence problems, and opportunities for safer prescribing or deprescribing. Plan care around the person Connect medical decisions to goals, caregiver support, treatment burden, follow-up needs, advance care planning, and coordination across clinic, hospital, home, and long-term care. What You Will Find Inside• Practical frameworks for frailty, falls, delirium, dementia, functional decline, and multimorbidity • Stepwise tools for cognitive care, medication review, safety assessment, and follow-up planning • Guidance on recognizing atypical illness presentations and medication-related symptoms in older adults • Care-planning strategies that balance disease treatment with independence, comfort, safety, and quality of life • Clear support for medical students, residents, geriatric clinicians, internists, primary care providers, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, and care-team learners Geriatric Medicine Fundamentals is not simply adult medicine organized by age. It is a structured foundation for understanding how older adults change over time, how complexity affects care, and how thoughtful clinical decisions can support safer aging and more meaningful daily life.
