About

With the ageing European Society, there is an increasing demand for Geriatric Emergency Medicine. This website is an initiative of the European Geriatric Medicine Society (EuGMS) and the European Society for Emergency Medicine (EUSEM). Together, they initiated the European Task Force on Geriatric Emergency Medicine: a formal collaboration between the societies since 2013.

Our mission is to develop sustainable clinically and cost-effective patient-centred health care systems that improve relevant outcomes for older patients in EDs across Europe

A mission statement has been published European Journal of Emergency Medicine: April 2019 – Volume 26 – Issue 2 – p 75-76. Follow this link to read.
