Event Details
Co-sponsored by the Geriatric Mental Health Alliance of New York and the Brookdale Center for Healthy Aging and Longevity of Hunter College, Practical Strategies for Addressing Medication Safety Issues Among Older Adults - A Best Practices Presentation in Geriatric Mental Health will be presented by:
- Andrew Kolbasovsky, Psy.D., EmblemHealth, Inc.
Summary: Older adults receiving multiple medications from multiple prescribers and pharmacies are at elevated risk for experiencing adverse effects from medication. This presentation will provide the critical skills needed for practitioners to identify overlooked medication safety issues, address the unique health/mental health needs of older adults and collaborate with multiple practitioners. Key
points include: facilitating coordinations of care, reducing polypharmacy and other medication risks, making appropriate referrals to specialty care services, and the value of obtaining prescriptions from a single dispensing pharmacy.
The event will be held from 3:00 - 5:00PM at the Hunter College School of Social Work - Auditorium, 129 East 79th Street, NYC, (Between Lexington and Park Avenues). If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Yusyin by e
mailing yhsin@mhaofnyc.org or calling (212) 614-6356. The event is free (unless you're applying for CEU credits) but pre-registration is required.

Hosted By
The Geriatric Mental Health Alliance of NY
The Mental Health Association of New York City established The Geriatric Mental Health Alliance in January 2004. The Alliance was formed to confront the mental health challenges of the elder boom and to promote critical changes in practice and policy.
The goal of The Alliance is to promote improved geriatric mental health practice by identifying best and innovative practices, identifying barriers to their use, developing policy proposals to overcome these barriers, and advocating for policy and practice changes. To this end, The Alliance sponsors consensus groups on topics related to geriatric mental health; a series of presentations on best practices with national experts; and numerous conferences. In addition, the Alliance provides technical assistance regarding service models and funding including how to optimize Medicare funding.
