| Influences on the start, selection and duration of treatment with antibiotics in long-term care facilitiesAntibiotic prescribers exhibit individual, measurable, historical tendencies towards antibiotic initiation, use of prolonged treatment duration and class selection; prescriber audit-and-feedback may be a promising tool to optimize antibiotic use in long-term care.SIG2014-M1 University of Toronto, Mt.

Statin prescribing was substantial within nursing homes, even among frail residents. After controlling for resident characteristics, the prescribing of statins was not randomly distributed across physicians. Further studies are required to evaluate the risks and benefits of statin use, and discontinuation, among nursing home residents to inform clinical practice in this setting.SIG2014-M1 University of Waterloo, Mt.

PIMs are more likely to be started in frail individuals following admission. Interventions to support deprescribing of PIMs should be implemented targeting frail individuals during the transition to nursing home.SIG2014-M1 University of Waterloo, Mt.
