I did #ChooseGeriatrics, at aged 3 it seems, and I'm so glad I did. Why? The teamwork to overcome complexity, the life stories that inform priority setting, the science and art of delivering a biopsychosocial model of care and the giving back to those who went before us.@GeriSoc

Every older person deserves a bespoke and holistic approach to their medicines - there’s no ‘one size fits all’ and we really need to think about how ageing mechanisms affect health Listen to this podcast with @JenMStevenson to hear us chatting about ageing, drugs, and more 💊
How does ageing affect the way the body absorbs medicines? Dr @CarlyWelch_42 and Dr @JenMStevenson share approaches to personalising the use of medicines in older people ⬇️ https://t.co/5h0oganSlB

Is age the best measure to fully capture the complexity of increased adverse reaction risk in older patients? For #UppsalaReports, Giovanni Furlan and @JenMStevenson argue that we should consider frailty in #pharmacovigilance practices instead 👉 https://t.co/1DxEcFDn87
