Released on 15 November 2023, it packs 110 recorded lectures and PDF material into a single review that serves the geriatric medicine and the hospice and palliative medicine board exams equally.

Inside the course
Geriatric medicine, system by system
Dozens of talks apply an older-adult lens to organ disease: hypertension, atrial fibrillation, aortic stenosis, COPD, thyroid, diabetes, osteoporosis, hearing loss, dermatology, foot problems, oral care and HIV. Separate lectures handle physiological ageing, the 5Ms and geriatric assessment tools.
Palliative care and symptom control
Hospice, end-of-life symptoms, palliative emergencies, palliative radiation, medical cannabis, anxiety and refractory depression sit beside two symptom-management sessions, PCA and methadone, interventional pain and interdisciplinary care of total pain.
Care models, ethics and the business side
Nursing-home quality, hospital-at-home, managed care models, transitions, telemedicine, billing and documentation, and US health-care payment get practical treatment, alongside older drivers, LGBTQ care and clinician well-being.
Intensive Update with Board Review in Geriatric & Palliative Medicine: board focus
Case-based sessions on haematologic malignancy, geriatric emergencies and surgical emergencies test application, while talks on prognostication and medical decision making target the reasoning that board vignettes demand.

Faculty & syllabus
Before you buy
How current is the 2023 content?
The recordings were released in November 2023, so drug approvals, guidelines and payment rules after that date are not covered. Consider a newer review if you sit the exam much later.
Does it include practice questions?
No question bank is listed; the package consists of the lecture videos and accompanying PDF material.
Is paediatric palliative care covered?
Yes, one lecture by Jennifer Salant addresses children, but the course is overwhelmingly about adults and older adults.
Do I get CME credit or a certificate?
No. Clinicapedia provides the educational content only — no CME or CE credits, MOC points or certificates of completion are included with this product.
