Join us for this special presentation featuring real-world strategies for preventing hospital delirium! Delirium affects as many as 50% of hospitalized patients over the age of 65. Furthermore, delirium accounts for increased length of stay, hospital readmissions, emergency department visits and institutionalization of older adults. Delirium is often precipitated by opioid use for pain management. Don’t miss this discussion on alternatives, using an example of a successful hospital project. These initiatives will inspire you to take on delirium prevention at your facility!
