Abstract:
Less than 3% of health care providers have training to treat older patients. This lack of geriatric training is a crisis that will only grow as the Baby Boomer generation ages. Medical Never-Never Land is a report highlighting this crisis and based on a forum held under the auspices of the U.S. Senate Special Committee on Aging.
