Join Dr. Karl Steinberg and Dr. Paul Katz as they highlight three articles from the May 2025 issue of JAMDA. In this episode, they speak with Dr. Richard Stefanacci about a new paradigm in fall management that emphasizes injury mitigation over fall prevention alone. They also chat with Zain Pasat, MSc, about a study conducted by his research team examining the alignment between home care needs assessments and actual changes in older adults' health. Lastly, they explore a systematic review of dyadic psychosocial education for individuals with cognitive impairment and their caregivers.
