Management of Neurocognitive Conditions in the Older Adult (release in progress)

Von Kimberly Posey, AGPCNP-BC, DNP, PhD, GS-C

The management of neurocognitive conditions in older adults represents a critical area of healthcare that bridges neurological science with practical patient care. This course provides essential knowledge for healthcare providers to effectively assess, diagnose, and develop comprehensive treatment plans for conditions such as dementia, Alzheimer's disease, and other cognitive impairments that commonly affect the aging population.

Building upon foundational knowledge of neuroanatomy and pathophysiology, the course emphasizes evidence-based interventions, pharmacological management, and the crucial role of interdisciplinary collaboration in optimizing patient outcomes. Students will develop key competencies in differentiating between normal aging processes and pathological cognitive decline, while learning to address both the medical and psychosocial needs of patients and their caregivers throughout the disease progression.
