The Brain and Aging

SKU: 62053.02

Canada’s population is aging, which has growing implications for the medical and legal professions. This paper examines considerations for lawyers related to cognitive and functional decline in aging adults. In particular, the paper provides a description of the demographics of aging in Canada, an exploration of the spectrum of cognitive changes in older adults, a discussion of how multi-morbidity, polypharmacy, and frailty interact with cognition, and a review of possible implication for legal practice.

This paper is part of a collection presented at LESA’s 2017 Understanding the Brain – What Lawyers Need to Know program.
