Preface

We are excited to bring you this geriatric-focused issue of Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America. The authors have done a thorough job of interpreting the literature and distilling important concepts so you can be prepared for your next shift (or hospital meeting). While education in our field correctly trains us for the next trauma or airway disaster, the realities of our shifts are often quite different. Chief complaints that fill our days often include “weak and dizzy,” “fall,” “confusion,” “dementia with behaviors,” and so forth.
