Course programme

Course review:

The proportion of the aged in society today is greater than ever before. Current indications are that approximately 34% of calls for emergency medical services or 3.4 million emergency responses involve patients over the age of 60. This population has specific medical needs that must be met and the GEMS course is designed to address all of those special needs. To ensure quality prehospital care of our older adults, prehospital providers must acquire the additional knowledge, skills, and attitudes that comprise the basic concepts of geriatric medicine, as well as the ability to care for older adults in an empathetic manner. .
