    Aging Without Errors
    Regional Event: national
    Start Date: 08/21/2025 1:00 pm
    End Date: 08/21/2025 2:40 pm
    Location: Windermere YZ
    Session details

    This course explores the role of medical errors in managing aging populations, emphasizing diagnostic accuracy, patient communication, and the integration of evidence-based protocols. Presenters will address common mistakes in prescribing treatments, ordering tests, and implementing therapies in patients with chronic or age-related conditions. Special attention will be given to the importance of metabolomics, proper medication use, and avoiding errors in genetic testing and supplementation. Attendees will leave with actionable strategies to optimize care and minimize risks when managing aging patients.

     

    Learning Objectives

    1. Identify common medical errors in diagnosing and managing age-related conditions.
    2. Analyze patient data, including genetic and metabolic testing, to reduce diagnostic inaccuracies.
    3. Apply safe, evidence-based treatment protocols to avoid medication and supplementation errors.

    Coordination of Nutritional Recommendations Utilizing Blood Chemistry and Genetic Testing
    Regional Event: national

    End Date: 08/22/2025 12:00 pm
    Location: Celebration 4
    Session details

    This two-hour program will cover the basics in genetic testing and how to determine what the patient needs to prevent the disease process based on their genetic predisposition.  Evaluating blood work can help support those recommendations and will help determine where the patient is in relationship to being preventative or reactive depending on where they are on their path of health. Being able to coordinate care between the testing can increase success rates in treatment and prevention.  Genetic markers can also help dictate the type of exercise and diet patterns that will be most beneficial for your patients. Ever have the one who “eats right and exercises all the time” and can’t lose weight?  This is an example of how genetic testing can alter their path and your treatment protocol.   Case studies demonstrating this work in clinical practice will be shared.

    Learning Objectives

    1. The doctor will gain a basic knowledge of genetic testing related to disease, diet, and exercise.
    2. The doctor will be able to coordinate basic blood chemistry and genetic testing to create appropriate nutritional or supplemental recommendations.
    3. The doctor will understand how to utilize genetic testing in practice in a simple easy to implement manner.
