As the population ages, the number of older adults is expected to rise substantially with a predicted 1.6 billion people over age 65 by 2050.

Additionally, substantial health care costs are accrued due to trauma related injuries in older adults. The NYU Langone Interdisciplinary Palliative Care Conference 2024: Geriatric Trauma and Palliative Care will explore the partnership and implications of specialized Palliative Care involvement when treating Geriatric Trauma patients.
