The baby boomers are getting on in years
An interprofessional symposium
An ageing society and the increase in chronically ill people are leading to a growing need for medical and therapeutic services. As a result, the care of complex patients is expected to gain in importance. The aim of the symposium is to provide evidence-based impetus for professional development in the health promotion of older people.
The contributions will focus on therapeutic interventions to promote regeneration factors in older, particularly polymorbid, patients.
