Recognising and Managing Cognitive Issues in the Elderly FY25

19 & 26 May 2025

Singapore has one of the most rapidly ageing population in the world, with almost one in two persons over the age of 65 by 2050. With this growing greying population, of particular concern is associated with cognitive conditions. The number of affected elderly with cognitive disorders worldwide is expected to reach 82 million by year 2030. Cognitive issues in older adults can be attributed to a range of factors such as metabolic issues, delirium, etc. In addition, affected older adults may also experience difficulties across a range of cognitive functions like memory, attention, and language, as well as changes in functional skills and behaviours. By understanding the possible contributing factors and how different dimensions of cognition, functional skills and behaviour interact with each other, the course can help healthcare professionals better manage patients with cognitive conditions.
