Step 1: Education
Participating GPs were invited to 3 consecutive face-to-face educational sessions over a period of 6 months, of which 2 were mandatory and 1 was optional (conducted mainly in an online format as of April 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic). The workshops included case-based teaching of the contents of a deprescribing guideline and a geriatric toolbox on nonpharmacologic interventions, as well as communication training on how to conduct structured family conferences.
