As the U.S. population ages, chiropractic physicians are increasingly serving older adults with complex healthcare needs. By 2030, nearly 20% of Americans will be age 65 or older, creating unprecedented demand for accessible healthcare services. At the same time, healthcare workforce shortages are resulting in extended wait times for patients seeking care. As discussions continue regarding expanded Medicare coverage for chiropractic physicians, doctors of chiropractic must be prepared to confidently evaluate, communicate with, and manage the unique challenges facing older adults.
This comprehensive program provides practical strategies for delivering patient-centered care to aging populations. Participants will explore screening tools, intake procedures, physical examinations, falls prevention, gait assessment, disability considerations, assistive technologies, communication techniques, and common barriers to care including loneliness, grief, depression, dementia, abuse, and post-traumatic stress. The course will also review common laboratory testing, imaging, geriatric comorbidities, special care considerations, masquerading diseases, emerging health concerns, pharmacology, sleep disorders, and chronic pain management.
Designed for chiropractic physicians who want to expand their knowledge and confidence in caring for older adults, this program will provide actionable tools to improve clinical decision-making, interdisciplinary collaboration, community engagement, and preparedness for the evolving healthcare needs of the Medicare population.
