Invitation to Join: HANYS 2024 NY Age-Friendly Health Systems Action Community
The Healthcare Association of New York State (HANYS) is inviting health systems teams to join the 2024 New York State Age-Friendly Health Systems Action Community. HANYS will hold an informational webinar about the Action Community on November 13.
The goal of the Age-Friendly Health Systems (AFHS) Action Community is to engage hospitals and health systems to provide age-friendly care to all older adults by implementing evidence-based interventions across four elements of care, known as the “4Ms”: What Matters, Medication, Mentation and Mobility. Teams will join the Action Community to launch and rapidly spread the age-friendly movement across New York, aligning with the statewide goal that 50% of health systems become age-friendly.
Details on participation and benefits are laid out in HANYS recruitment package.
The AFHS New York State Action Community will take place from November 2023 through October 2024. The Action Community is free of charge; some health systems may be eligible to apply for stipends to support this work.
Funding is provided by the New York State Health Foundation, Health Foundation of Western and Central New York, Fan Fox & Leslie R. Samuels Foundation and New York Community Trust.
