Financial Decision-Making & Abuse Among Older Adults
Mary Greeley Medical Center Grand Rounds is a multi-disciplinary clinical activity which serves to maintain, develop, or increase the knowledge, skills, and professional performance and relationships that a physician uses to provide services for patients, the public or the profession.
Target Audience
Physicians, mid-level providers, nurses and healthcare administrators.
Learning Objectives
- Understand how financial decision-making changes with age.
- Understand the financial abuse of older adults (e.g. what red flags to look for).
- Consider ways to integrate evaluation of financial competence into your clinical work.
Professional Gap
Clinicians working with older adults, both cognitively intact elders as well as those with demential syndromes, must realize that financial decision-making and abuse in these individuals is vastly under-discussed and under-researched.
