Learning Module

People are living longer and it is imperative that healthcare providers understand the aging process. Participate in this module to learn about the current theories about the physiologic process of aging, understand the effects of aging on major organ systems and differentiate normal aging from pathology.

This learning module, created by L. Amanda Perry and Tanjeev Kaur, discusses aging. By the end of the presentation, learners should be able to: (1) describe the current theories of physiological aging; (2) explain the effects of aging on major organ systems; (3) differentiate normal aging from pathology; and (4) recognize age-related changes in patients. Registration is required to access the material but there is no charge.
