Geriatric emergency medicine – a niche group but one that is growing.
That’s the view of FACEM Associate Professor Glenn Arendts, who will be presenting at GEM SEM 2019 in April.
“We will never be on the front pages of newspapers or poster people for our specialty, but I think meetings like GEM SEM show me that FACEMs will be there for our oldest patients as much as any other age group. It’s uplifting to be a part of it,” Associate Professor Arendts says.

GEM SEM 2019 will be held on Thursday, April 4 in Sydney.
GEM SEM is the best conference around for those interested in geriatrics and emergency medicine. It was started three years ago by a group made up of some emergency physicians from the ACEM Geriatrics special interest group, PHEMC.org and other clinicians who collaborated to fill the need for continuing professional development in this field. It has gone from strength to strength.
