摘要：
The number of older adults engaging in unhealthy alcohol use is on the rise, and this trend is expected to continue as the population ages. However, the likelihood a provider will ask an older adult about their alcohol use decreases with age. Geriatric screening tools take into account the particular features of alcohol use in older adults, but minimal research and guidance are available regarding the best method for screening. Lack of knowledge and time are significant obstacles to adequate assessment. Simply asking about alcohol con-sumption may be the best approach to evaluate the drinking habits of older patients.(c) 2022 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
