Better Care Playbook Blog: How Can Health Systems Help Older Adults Address Social Isolation and Loneliness?
The Better Care Playbook has published a blog, "How Can Health Systems Help Older Adults Address Social Isolation and Loneliness? A Conversation with The John A. Hartford Foundation’s Terry Fulmer."
Social isolation and loneliness in older adults are serious issues that are currently being exacerbated by COVID-19. The Playbook recently spoke to Terry Fulmer, PhD, RN, FAAN, president of The John A. Hartford Foundation, who shared her perspectives on the current situation, a recent National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) report on social isolation, and the goals of the Age-Friendly Health Systems initiative.
