PROGRAM OVERVIEW
In this interactive grand rounds program, we will provide instruction on screening, diagnosing, and staging of mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease. The lecture and case-based scenarios will educate on the appropriate use of disease-modifying therapy, assessing and managing adverse events associated with these therapies, and implementing tools to solve issues with access to therapy. Finally, the faculty will discuss shared decision making and multidisciplinary teams as essential elements for successful care of these patients.
