Awarded first place in the 2019 AJN Book of the Year Awards in the
Gerontologic Nursing category second place in the Advanced Practice
Nursing category. Gain expert primary care of older adults with a
case-based approach to geriatric primary care and multimorbidity
management Written by two leading academic and clinical experts in
geriatric primary care, Case Studies in Geriatric Primary Care and
Multimorbidity Management, 1st Edition uses detailed Exemplar Case
Studies and Practice case studies to teach you how to think like an
expert geriatric clinician. Because most older adults have more
than one condition when seeking care, both Exemplar and Practice
Case Studies place a strong emphasis on "multimorbidity"
management, (the management of patients with a host of complex,
interacting conditions). To provide extensive practice in learning
how to think like an expert, case studies reflect the reality that
care does not necessarily begin or end in the primary care setting,
cases move fluidly from primary care to acute care to inpatient
rehabilitation to assisted living to long-term care. Building on
foundational introductory chapters, cases also call on you to
develop interprofessional collaboration skills and reflect the
diversity of today's older adults, in terms of age (young-old to
old-old), gender, culture, ethnicity, sexuality, socioeconomic
status, and more! As you work through both basic-level and advanced
Practice Case Studies, you can make extensive notes in the printed
book and then go online to submit answers for grading and receive
expert feedback for self-reflection. NEW! Introductory unit on the
