Managing cognitive and behavioral symptoms in aging is an essential aspect of high‑quality geriatric care. In this grand rounds session, Brett Y. Lu, M.D., PhD, Clinical Associate Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Hawaiʻi and Psychiatrist at The Queen’s Medical Center, will provide an evidence‑based overview of factors contributing to cognitive and behavioral changes in older adults. Participants will gain greater familiarity with modifiable risk factors, learn to recognize behavioral symptoms that may warrant medical intervention, and explore strategies to manage these symptoms safely and effectively—particularly in individuals with dementia. This training is designed for physicians, nurses, and allied health professionals caring for geriatric patients.
