New GWEP-CC Age-Friendly Health Systems Case Studies

Date07/28/2022

The Geriatrics Workforce Enhancement Program Coordinating Center (GWEP-CC) is pleased to announce that a new tool: the GWEP-CC Age-Friendly Health Systems Case Studies, is now available. This series of 12 Case Studies, developed by GWEP partners, present a broad range of cases taking learners through primary care experiences implementing the 4Ms (Mentation, Medications, Mobility, What Matters) of Age-Friendly care into their practices. Case study authors participated in the GWEP-CC Age Friendly Health Systems Action Community (2020-2021). The Institute for Health Care Improvement (IHI) has recognized these practices as an Age-Friendly Health System Participant (Level-1) or Age-Friendly Health System – Committed to Care Excellence (Level-2). These case studies will be published on a rolling basis and are available to all GCO users. Please contact Jen Cross with any questions.
