This one-day workshop explores the unique challenges of managing trauma in the older person. Participants will gain a comprehensive overview of pathways surgical and non-surgical management, including early recognition, risk stratification, perioperative considerations, and the role of conservative care pathways.
The morning sessions will provide expert-led insights into evidence-informed practices, addressing common injury patterns, decision-making frameworks, and the complexities of managing trauma in an ageing population across acute and subacute settings.
In the afternoon, the workshop transitions into three streams, offering hands-on learning in ultrasound (limited places) and case-based learning opportunities.
This workshop is ideal for clinicians and health professionals seeking to deepen their expertise, enhance practical skills, and deliver holistic trauma care tailored to older patients.
