NBC Universal and Telemundo Segment: Live Your Best Life With Age-Friendly Care
The John A. Hartford Foundation partnered with NBC Universal and Telemundo to bring information about age-friendly care directly to consumers in a televised segment aired on August 20, "Live Your Best Life With Age-Friendly Care."
Ereka Vetrini talked with Terry Fulmer, PhD, RN, FAAN, President, and Marcus Escobedo, MPA, Vice President, Communications and Senior Program Officer, of The John A. Hartford Foundation, about what “age-friendly care” is and how it affects you and your loved ones.
The conversation explained the 4Ms of the Age-Friendly Health Systems initiative: What Matters, Medication, Mentation, and Mobility, and gave real life examples. The segment was aired on NBC affiliates across the East Coast in English and Spanish.
Consumers can also visit a new webpage that provides accessible and actionable information for older adults to get age-friendly care. The webpage is also available in Spanish.
The segments ran on NBC's New York WNBC; Boston WBTS; Hartford WVIT; Miami WTVJ; and DC WRC, and Telemundo's New York WNJU; Boston WNEU; Hartford WRDM; Miami WSCV; and DC WZDC.
