subspecialty certification. The MOC Conferences are also designed
for general psychiatrists, geriatricians, nurses, family physicians,
psychologists and researchers.
Educational Objectives
This conference is sponsored and accredited by the American
Association for Geriatric Psychiatry (AAGP). The goals of
this course are to provide an in-depth interactive educational
session on non-Alzheimer’s disease dementias with a
focus on the application to clinical practice.

Long before it was a historic hotel, the Nashville, Tennessee,
Union Station was a key center in America's economy and culture.
Opening on October 9, 1900, to great fanfare, the building's
imposing Gothic design -- featuring lofty turrets and towers
-- was a testament to U.S. ingenuity and energy. During railroading's
glory years, the station saw characters such as movie starlet
Mae West and Mafia kingpin Al Capone -- who was escorted through
here on his way to Alcatraz. Other fascinating facts surrounding
our historic Nashville hotel include:
- Construction began on Aug. 1, 1898
- Station officially opened on Oct. 9, 1900
- The lobby once held two alligator ponds
- The Train Shed was the largest unsupported span in America,
housing up to 10 full trains at once
- Officially opened as a hotel in December 1986
