In Their Prime: The Geriatrics Audio Course Every Clinician Needs

By Ashley Greer PA-C on

The population is aging fast, and clinicians are feeling the impact. By 2030, 1 in 5 Americans will be over 65, and older adults already represent the highest healthcare utilization of any age group. Yet fewer than 45% of medical schools have a required geriatrics rotation, leaving most of us to piece together our knowledge on the fly.

Older adults make up a growing share of nearly every clinical practice—primary care, emergency medicine, urgent care, and beyond. Every day we navigate polypharmacy, falls, delirium, depression, dementia, and end-of-life planning, often without structured training. If you’ve ever searched "Beers Criteria" between patients or felt unsure about deprescribing for an 89-year-old with five specialists, you’re not alone.

That’s why Hippo Educations created In Their Prime: A Geriatrics Audio Course, a flexible, podcast-style CME course designed for clinicians who want confidence in caring for older adults.

 

What Makes In Their Prime Different

This isn’t another dry online CME or Zoom lecture. In Their Prime: Geriatrics is a 9-hour audio course that plugs directly into your day, your commute, and your workflow. Each episode blends evidence, empathy, and experience from seasoned clinicians, so you get practical geriatrics pearls you can apply immediately.

Whether you work in primary care, hospital medicine, home health, urgent care, or long-term care, this course delivers what most training programs never did: clear, actionable geriatrics education built for busy clinicians.

 

What You’ll Learn: Meds, Memory, Mobility—We Cover It All

Across more than 25 engaging conversations, you’ll gain practical insight into:

  • Polypharmacy & Deprescribing: when to stop, switch, or simplify medications

  • Cognitive Disorders: MCI, dementia, delirium, and how to tell them apart

  • Mobility & Falls Prevention: assessing risk, strengthening safety plans

  • Transitions of Care & Advance Care Planning: communication and coordination pearls

  • Mental Health & Elder Abuse: recognizing subtle red flags

  • Pharmacologic Principles for Older Adults: dosing nuances, renal adjustments

...and so much more. You’ll hear from seasoned internists, geriatricians, emergency medicine physicians, and palliative care providers, covering practical insights and strategies for every care setting.

Whether you're helping a patient navigate a new dementia diagnosis or wondering when to refer for hospice, these conversations help you bring clarity, compassion, and confidence to your care.
