| Choosing Wisely Talks | Bladder Infection, or Something Else?
In long-term care (LTC) settings, changes in a resident’s health or behaviour often raise concerns about the possibility of a bladder infection. However, without checking for other causes, residents may undergo unnecessary testing and receive antibiotics that do not address the underlying issue. Join Choosing Wisely Talks on November 27 at 12 p.m. ET for a discussion on assessing changes in the health and behavioural status of LTC residents. Dr. Sid Feldman, Julie Weir, and Dr. Jerome Leis will share practical strategies to rule out bladder infections, helping to avoid unnecessary urine testing and antibiotic overprescribing. |
