Telemedicine clinical geriatrics care allows older adults, especially those who reside in rural areas, to gain access to geriatrics trained clinicians. Learning Objectives: (1) review the competencies for video telemedicine with older adults and understand how these competencies have the potential to expand the diversity of patient populations who can be served by telemedicine; (2) review strategies to implement interdisciplinary geriatrics care for patients; (3) review recent qualitative data on the experience of dementia caregivers for older adults in receiving tele-dementia care; and (4) identify helpful resources for providing dementia care to older adults through telemedicine.
