- The impact of COVID-19 on GP presentations for older populations.
- Issues for older Australians in a ‘post-pandemic’ COVID-19 environment.
- 75-year health assessments and how to use them effectively.
- End of life care and advanced care planning – bringing palliative care forward in disease trajectory.
