Preparing for the Future: How the Age-Friendly Health Systems Initiative is Transforming Care for America's Aging Population

  • Summary

  • 30 years from now, it's projected that nearly one quarter of America's population will be age 65 or older. To mitigate potential care gaps, the Age-Friendly Health Systems Initiative was created to improve health care for older adults. In this conversation, Dave Eaker, geriatric program coordinator at Atrium Health, and Shannon Morton, assistant vice president of patient care services at Atrium Health Cabarrus, discuss the reasons the organization made the jump to join the Initiative, the infrastructure being developed across the system, and the difference it's made for the aging population.
