SUMMARY:Clinical Application of the Long-Term Care (LTC) Fracture Prevention Recommendations for Frail Older Adults
DESCRIPTION:Long-term care (LTC) residents are more dependent\, frail and vulnerable\, and require more complex care than community-dwelling older adults. Yet many interventions intended to reduce fracture risk are not used consistently in LTC\, and clinical practice guidelines for osteoporosis have focused on the care of adults living in the community. This program aims to address existing care gaps by illustrating the application of pharmacological and non-pharmacological fracture prevention recommendations with frail older adults in LTC. After active engagement in this program\, participants will be better able to: \n\n\n\n\nAssess fracture risk using Fracture Risk Scale\n\n\n\nApply evidence-based recommendations for fracture prevention in LTC\n\n\n\nRecognize challenges and barriers to implement the recommendations and use enablers\n\n\n\n\nPresented by:\n\n\n\nAlexandra Papaioannou BScN\, MD\, MSc\, FRCP(C)\, FACP Professor of Medicine/Geriatric Medicine\, McMaster University Executive Director\, GERAS Centre\, Hamilton Health Sciences \n\n\n\nSidney Feldman\, MD\, CCFP\, FCFP  Chief\, Department of Family and Community Medicine\, Baycrest Health Sciences Associate Professor\, Family and Community Medicine\, University of Toronto \n\n\n\nDelivered in collaboration with the Ontario Osteoporosis Strategy. \n\n\n\nThere is no cost to attend. This one-credit-per-hour Group Learning program has been certified by the College of Family Physicians of Canada and the Ontario Chapter for up to 1 Mainpro+ credit.

SUMMARY:Osteoporosis and Fracture Prevention Workshop - October 2026
DESCRIPTION:Join this interactive workshop to build your skills in the assessment\, treatment and prevention of osteoporosis-related fractures in primary care. Through expert-led discussion\, case-based learning and practical clinical tools\, participants will explore evidence-informed approaches to fracture risk assessment\, BMD interpretation\, treatment selection and ongoing patient management. Attendees will leave with actionable resources and strategies that can be applied immediately in practice. \n\n\n\nVisit our workshop page to learn more about learning objectives and benefits of this workshop. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorkshop Details\n\n\n\nDate: Wednesday\, October 14 \, 2026 \n\n\n\nDelivery Format: Online \n\n\n\nTime: 9:00 AM-12:00 PM EST \n\n\n\nCost: $195+ HST   \n\n\n\nReflective Follow-Up Meeting: 1:00 PM-2:00 PM EST on Wednesday\, November 18\, 2026 \n\n\n\nThe 1 hour online reflective follow-up meeting will provide an opportunity to revisit real‑world challenges and successes after implementing the strategies covered in the workshop.
