Book excerpt: Updates for 2020! We've made edits and updates to the following sections: Asthma, Atrial Fibrillation, Beers Criteria, Chronic Kidney Disease, Crohn's, COPD, Diabetes, Migraines, Hyperlipidemia, Parkinson's, Sexual Dysfunction, Ulcerative Colitis, and Vaccines. In addition, we've created a section on the rapidly growing topic of Pharmacogenomics. If you are a pharmacist seeking to become board certified in geriatrics by passing the exam, this is a must-have study guide. We've edited our VERY popular BCPS Bullets book and created a review for the geriatric pharmacy exam based on the Board of Pharmaceutical Specialties content outline. With recent PASS rates around 40%, you have to have the right tools to pass this exam and this book will help immensely. In addition to the exam being very difficult, you are likely a busy professional with very minimal free time. I've always had a hard time staying focused while studying from large review article type study guides and have squandered hours reading while retaining very little. This book is intended to be a crash course/cheat sheet overview of the most highly testable material. I wanted to remember the really important stuff because I know it is impossible to know every minute detail. BCGP Bullets, the Condensed BCGP Study Guide will help prepare you for the exam as well as help you maximize your study time. We have covered over 100+ disease states with critical clinical pearls, like drugs of choice, drug interactions, disease state education, and geriatric-specific nuggets for certain medications. Biostatistics basics, important geriatric terminology, social, financial, and emotional considerations are also included in this book. Items like elder abuse, advanced directives, and power of attorney show up in the content outline and we have also outlined the basics of this terminology. I can assure you that there is no doubt this book will help in your preparation for becoming a BCGP certified pharmacist! The Board Certified Geriatric Pharmacist (BCGP) is a designation from the Board of Pharmacy Specialties. The contents within this study guide are not affiliated or endorsed by the Board of Pharmacy Specialties.

Book excerpt: Simply put, this BCGP review from Meded101 will help you pass your exam and become a Board Certified Geriatric Pharmacist. I've worked my entire career in geriatrics and wanted to share some of that clinical knowledge with you as well as provide you an incredibly valuable study guide. Studying for a pharmacist board certification exam can be overwhelming. It's likely been a few years since you've taken an exam and the last thing you want to do is fail! The next to last thing you want to do is to try to find 3-6 months to study for the exam. As a father with two small children, I realize how valuable time is. What was frustrating to me about preparing for the Board Certified Geriatric Pharmacist (BCGP) exam, formerly the Certified Geriatric Pharmacist (CGP) exam as well as the BCPS exam was that the study material was not to the point. I felt like I needed to read thousands of pages to be adequately prepared. Recognizing that challenge of time management as a busy professional, I wanted to create the ultimate review for the BCGP exam that won't take you months to get through. I wanted to give you the most important bullet points you need to know to best prepare for the exam. I utilized the BCGP outline to create this study guide. It breaks down nearly 80 of the most important geriatric disease states. In this breakdown I include information about the signs and symptoms, complications, risk factors, and of course the main drugs of therapy for each disease. I also break down the most important clinical pearls from the drugs of choice for each disease state. Within the medications to know breakdown for each disease state, you will find clinical pearls, important adverse effects, drug-disease and drug-drug interaction information, and essential compelling indications. While this review specifically follows the content outline for the BCGP (CGP) exam, pharmacists seeking Board Certification in Pharmacotherapy (BCPS) or those seeking Board Certification in Ambulatory Care (BCACP) may also benefit from the clinical information within this study guide. The Board Certified Geriatric Pharmacist, Board Certified Pharmacotherapy Specialist, and Board Certified Ambulatory Care Pharmacist are designations from the Board of Pharmacy Specialties (BPS). The contents contained within this study guide are not affiliated or endorsed by BPS.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the first of the nation's 78 million baby boomers begin reaching age 65 in 2011, they will face a health care workforce that is too small and woefully unprepared to meet their specific health needs. Retooling for an Aging America calls for bold initiatives starting immediately to train all health care providers in the basics of geriatric care and to prepare family members and other informal caregivers, who currently receive little or no training in how to tend to their aging loved ones. The book also recommends that Medicare, Medicaid, and other health plans pay higher rates to boost recruitment and retention of geriatric specialists and care aides. Educators and health professional groups can use Retooling for an Aging America to institute or increase formal education and training in geriatrics. Consumer groups can use the book to advocate for improving the care for older adults. Health care professional and occupational groups can use it to improve the quality of health care jobs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As aging trends in the United States and Europe in particular are strongly suggestive of increasingly older society, it would be prudent for health care providers to better prepare for such changes. By including physiology, disease, nutrition, pharmacology, pathology, radiology and other relevant associated topics, Geriatric Gastroenterology fills the void in the literature for a volume devoted specifically to gastrointestinal illness in the elderly. This unique volume includes provision of training for current and future generations of physicians to deal with the health problems of older adults. It will also serve as a comprehensive guide to practicing physicians for ease of reference. Relevant to the geriatric age group, the volume covers epidemiology, physiology of aging, gastrointestinal physiology, pharmacology, radiology, pathology, motility disorders, luminal disorders, hepato-biliary disease, systemic manifestations, neoplastic disorders, gastrointestinal bleeding, cancer and medication related interactions and adverse events, all extremely common in older adults; these are often hard to evaluate and judge, especially considering the complex aging physiology. All have become important components of modern medicine. Special emphasis is be given to nutrition and related disorders. Capsule endoscopy and its utility in the geriatric population is also covered. Presented in simple, easy to read style, the volume includes numerous tables, figures and key points enabling ease of understanding. Chapters on imaging and pathology are profusely illustrated. All chapters are written by specialists and include up to date scientific information. Geriatric Gastroenterology is of great utility to residents in internal medicine, fellows in gastroenterology and geriatric medicine as well as gastroenterologists, geriatricians and practicing physicians including primary care physicians caring for older adults.

Subsequent chapters cover the various areas where pharmacists work, including in community, hospital, home health care, and government pharmacies. The book concludes with chapters on the pharmaceutical industry and career planning. Each chapter features learning objectives, summaries, discussion questions, exercises, Web sites of interest, and references. Pharmacies have evolved from the corner drugstores of old. To help navigate the modern field of pharmacy, this text provides a well-written, organized introduction for new pharmacy students, pharmacy technician trainees, and practitioners.
