Aging Adults and Medications:
Things the Caregiving Staff Wants to Know

Date: Wednesday, December 11, 2024

Webinar time: 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM Central Time

1.0 CE for CEU credit for both nurses (AANAC) and administrators (NCERS/NAB)

​​​​​​This is the introductory program in a 5-part series about medication safety. This program is about the resident and age-related changes that affect medications. We’ll discuss general aging changes and general rules for OAs taking lots of drugs. We’ll also focus on more specific things that a med aide might encounter in their residents that are more challenging, such as inhaled meds, refusals, and administration techniques like crushing, splitting, chewing, etc. This will also include cognitive and physical disabilities and how to adapt to them to ensure safety.

Presented by: Lee Meyer, PharmD, BCGP, FACP, FCPhA | Senior Care Pharmacist, Past ASCP President
