This presentation explores the powerful intersection of lifestyle medicine and geriatrics, focusing on how evidence-based behavioral interventions can improve outcomes for older adults. With over 95% of U.S. older adults living with at least one chronic condition-and multimorbidity rates expected to rise by 91% over the next 30 years-it is essential to address health behaviors as part of comprehensive care.
Participants will learn how lifestyle medicine, a growing medical specialty, is being integrated into clinical settings to not only manage but often reverse chronic diseases.
The session will cover comprehensive assessments tailored to older adults, key measures of successful aging, and emerging trends in geriatrics. Attendees will also explore current research, review case studies, and gain practical strategies for applying lifestyle medicine to the treatment of complex geriatric syndromes. Resources and tools for clinical integration will be shared.
