AHA Action Community Informational Webinar 3: Creating Age-Friendly Health Systems
The American Hospital Association (AHA) is holding a webinar August 10 on creating Age-Friendly Health Systems and how to join the movement.
Throughout the United States, hospitals, clinics, long-term care sites and other types of care sites are becoming Age-Friendly Health Systems as they implement the 4Ms Framework - what matters, medications, mentation and mobility - to provide high-quality care that meets the unique needs of older adults. By focusing on the 4Ms, the aim is to improve patient care, safety and outcomes; and reduce length of stay and readmissions.
The webinar will talk about the importance and impact of the 4Ms Framework, hear bright spots in the field integrating value-based, Age-Friendly care and cover the benefits of joining the Action Community. Speakers include:
- Marie Cleary-Fishman, Vice President of Clinical Quality, HRET/American Hospital Association
- Serena Wong, DO, Geriatric Medicine Specialist, Duke Regional Hospital
- Nikki Webb, MSW, LCSW, ACM-SW, Program Manager, Geriatrics, Duke Regional Hospital
