          Description
              The course Objectives are as follows:
- Participants will recognize that primary care geriatrics students are responsible for determining if patients are on Beers list drugs.
 - Participants will be able to discuss empiric evidence for how frequently Beers criteria drugs are implicated in adverse drug events compared to other drug categories.
 - Participants will understand recent evidence based studies concerning anticholinergic medication and adverse effects on cognition.
 - Discuss how to engage a student in a discussion of shared decision making when thinking about initiating or stopping an anticholinergic drug for urge urinary incontinence: non medication option, targets and goals for each medication.
