Inside this resource
Cognitive impairment, dementia, and neuropsychiatric care
Georges Naasan goes beyond Alzheimer’s dementia, Mary Sano provides an update on diagnosing and managing cognitive impairment, and Veronica Rivera covers office-based screening tools beyond the MMSE. Behavioral symptoms of dementia receive dedicated attention through Melinda Lantz’s session on management, while Gary Kennedy addresses late-life depression and refractory end-of-life depression.
Pain management, symptom control, and palliative pharmacology
Multiple pain-management sessions run from Ciera Sears’s introduction through Caitlyn Kuwata’s buprenorphine lecture, Mollie Biewald and Eugene Choi’s advanced PCA and methadone discussion, and Stelian Serban’s interventional approach. Non-pain symptom management by Kinga Kisko addresses xerostomia, hiccups, bowel obstruction, pruritus, and fatigue. Sharon See and Shahla Baharlou handle medication management across the illness trajectory.
Organ-specific geriatric medicine
The library covers heart failure (Johanna Paola Contreras), cardiovascular disease in two parts (Mary Ann McLaughlin), atrial fibrillation (S. Andrew McCullough), COPD and asthma (Patrick Chae), stroke (Sara Rostanski), renal palliative care (Emily Lu), hepatology (James Crismale and Christopher Woodrell), thyroid disease (Maria Skamagas), and hematologic malignancies (Adriana Malone). Peripheral vascular disease (Daniel Han) and anemia (Ryan Holstead) round out the organ-system review.
Ethics, care systems, and the business of geriatrics
Diane Meier’s “All You Need is Love” explores human connection as the basis for health. Rosanne Leipzig’s “Don’t Kill Granny” frames the imperative of better care for older adults. Sessions on advance care planning (Harriet Mather), family meetings (Carl Rousseau), medical decision making (Hannah Lipman), healthcare payment (Allison Silvers), and billing and documentation (Emily Chai and Audrey Chun) address the practical and systemic dimensions of practice. Palliative care in ALS (Elizabeth Lindenberger), LGBTQ care (Noelle Javier and colleagues), and cultural considerations (Helen Fernandez) extend the curriculum into underserved areas.
Geriatric syndromes and perioperative care
Falls (Helen Fernandez), frailty (Fred Ko), pressure ulcers (Harvey Himel), wound care, urinary incontinence (Eileen Callahan and Christine Chang), constipation (Brijen Shah), oral care (Miriam Robbins), and musculoskeletal medicine (Deborah Pacik, Leslie Kerr) address the syndromes that drive morbidity in older adults. Perioperative risk assessment (Newsha Ghodsi), surgical emergencies (Linda Zhang), and hazards of hospitalization (Martine Sanon) cover acute-care scenarios.

Dr. Anna K. –
111 videos covering geriatric and palliative medicine — this is the most comprehensive resource I have found. The cognitive impairment sessions by Georges Naasan and Mary Sano were exceptional.
Christine Lee –
The hospice and end-of-life care sessions were exactly what I needed. Real, honest discussions about what we can do for patients at the end of life. Highly recommend for anyone in palliative care.
Brian Mitchell –
Pain management content is outstanding across multiple sessions. The buprenorphine lecture and advanced PCA and methadone discussions gave me practical tools for difficult cases.
Samuel Park –
Excellent content but the 42 GB file size is a real barrier. Took me multiple days to download. Worth it once you have it, but plan your storage accordingly.
Naomi Wells –
The dementia and cognitive impairment sessions are the best I have encountered. Veronica Rivera’s office-based screening tools and Melinda Lantz’s behavioral symptom management were immediately applicable.
J. Fernandez –
Strong palliative medicine content. The capacity assessment and decision-making sessions were particularly useful for navigating complex family dynamics. Some repetition across sessions.
Maria Gonzalez –
The family meetings lecture by Carl Rousseau changed how I structure difficult conversations. The bereavement and psychosocial sessions in COVID times were also very relevant.
Andrew Kim –
The capacity assessment session was excellent and the billing and documentation lecture was surprisingly useful — something most courses skip. Good practical addition to the clinical content.
E. Thompson –
Palliative pharmacology content across pain, symptom management, and medication review sessions is thorough. This library essentially replaced five separate courses I was considering.
