Course overview

Osteoporosis is a "silent disease" and a major public health crisis, often asymptomatic until a devastating fragility fracture occurs. This advanced continuing education course moves beyond basic definitions to explore the pathophysiology of bone loss, current evidence-based screening protocols, and the "what" and "how" of modern pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments. Designed for the non-specialist frontline clinician, this course equips the learner to identify at-risk patients, interpret diagnostic reports (such as T-scores and FRAX), and implement interdisciplinary management strategies. The curriculum emphasizes the economic and human burden of the disease and outlines specific roles for nursing and allied health in patient education, fall prevention, and long-term adherence to therapy.
