San Antonio Geriatric & Palliative
Education (SAGE) Symposium: 2018
Optimizing the Care of the Chronically Ill
September 26-28, 2018
La Quinta Inn & Suites Medical Center
Course Description
The San Antonio Geriatric and Palliative Education (SAGE) Symposium is an innovative 3 day inter-
professional continuing education conference for primary care physicians, nurses, and social workers
focused on improving healthcare for older adults and the chronically ill.
How SAGE is Different: Skills Sessions & Health Fair
Most continuing education conferences require attendees to passively sit in their seats 8 hours a day
while experts click through PowerPoint slides. We at SAGE, feel that busy healthcare providers
should expect more from their continuing education conferences. During a conference, providers
should be able to actively engage with faculty. After a conference providers should feel energized
and able to apply new knowledge and skills when they return to work.
Skills Sessions: The first two days of the conference include breakout skills sessions where at-
tendees will learn geriatric and palliative care skills they can immediately apply to their patients.
Health Fair: The last day of the conference includes a health fair for community seniors where con-
ference attendees will practice the skills learned in the breakout skills sessions—cementing their
knowledge before they return home.
Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of this continuing educational activity, participants will be able to:
Identify, assess and adequately treat major geriatric syndromes
Master communication techniques used among inter-professional team members, families, and
patients in geriatrics and palliative care
Perform geriatric and palliative patient care skills and incorporate community member feedback
Target Audience
This activity is designed to meet the educational goals of healthcare providers working in internal
medicine, family medicine, hospital medicine, long term care, hospice care, geriatric medicine, and
palliative medicine. The course is geared towards practicing healthcare professionals (physicians,
nurses, social workers, etc.) who care for complex older adults and chronically ill patients and want to
update their clinical knowledge and skills in geriatric and palliative medicine. Activities will emphasize
inter-professional learning.
