EUGMS Congress 2016

5th October 2016 - 7th October 2016

From 5-7 October 2016 the leading medical experts in Europe will gather in Lisbon, Portugal, to attend one of the largest and most influential academic conferences and exhibitions on Geriatrics. The experts will focus on the most relevant issues related to the main theme of the Congress, including health care practices, pharmacological and surgical interventions. The Speakers will also focus on new challenges to health and aging, such as new information technologies and innovative medical protocols and practices.

During the congress, we will discuss the new roles and competences of different health care professionals in multidisciplinary teams as well as new advances in clinical geriatrics. We aim to:

  • Build interdisciplinary relationships within the medical community.
  • Learn and refresh how to manage the transition of care from the hospital to the community.
  • Understand the role of technology and economics in the management of elderly patients.
  • Identify strategies to improve the quality of end-of-life care and achieve reductions in hospital re-admissions and deaths in acute care settings.
  • Learn from European and world experts and refresh your knowledge of the complexity of geriatric medicine and of how this will shape the future of care provision.
  • Meet European and overseas experts to share their experiences and knowledge.

The Congress provides a unique opportunity to meet field experts, teachers, practicing clinicians and scientists, to update your knowledge of clinical care, research and innovative models of care delivery.

The Congress is an excellent platform to provide new insights into the care of the elderly, to improve our healthcare services and to establish clear directions in taking up the formidable challenges we will be confronted with in the years to come.
