Description

This course will facilitate and improve collaboration between orthopaedic surgeons, primary care providers, hospitalists, physical therapists, and other healthcare providers in the care of older fracture patients, particularly hip fracture patients. This course will focus on the continuum of clinical co-management strategies in the care of our senior orthopaedic patients including fracture prevention, osteoporosis risk and management and rehabilitation issues. The means through which this will be accomplished will be interactive, large and small group sessions.
