Next Ave QA

Next Avenue has published a Q&A article with Terry Fulmer PhD, RN, FAAN, President of The John A. Hartford Foundation, "COVID-19 and the Future of Aging: The Outlook for Age-Friendly Health Systems."

Dr. Fulmer answers three questions:

  • What has the pandemic shown us about ageism in health care, what needs to change and what can philanthropy do to push progress?
  • You've been working hard to expand the growth of age-friendly health systems. How has the pandemic affected this and what do you think the future holds for age-friendly health systems?
  • What impacts from COVID-19 do you foresee for philanthropic institutions committed to supporting healthy aging in the years ahead?

This article is the nineteenth in a weekly joint Q&A series on COVID-19 and the Future of Aging from the Milken Institute Center for the Future of Aging and Next Avenue.
