IHI Resources to Practice Age-Friendly Care

Posted In: Age-Friendly Health Systems, Tools & Guides, Professionals

The Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) has created a resource hub to help care teams practice age-friendly care.

Age-Friendly Health Systems (AFHS) is an initiative of JAHF and IHI, in partnership with the American Hospital Association (AHA) and the Catholic Health Association of the United States (CHA), designed to help care teams test and implement a specific set of evidence-based, geriatric best practices called the "4Ms": What Matters, Medication, Mentation, Mobility.

This resource hub contains several guides and toolkits covering a range of topics, organized under these categories:

1. Getting Started Guides
2. The 4Ms Framework
3. Making the Case for Age-Friendly Health Systems
4. Working with Older Adults
5. Case Studies and Media
