As the aging population continues to grow and the Medicare drug benefit is implemented next year, pharmacists will face even more challenges in senior care settings.

Some of these techniques are proven and widely studied; others are new and cutting edge. Yet, they all can enable senior care pharmacists to take a leadership role in addressing and avoiding conflicts.
