What age-friendly care means for older adults
The American Medical Association is highlighting what age-friendly care involves for older adults, focusing on how health systems can tailor treatment to the needs and priorities of aging patients. The approach emphasizes respecting older adults' goals, mobility, mental health and medication needs rather than treating age alone as a medical problem.
Why now: Health systems and clinicians are paying growing attention to care models designed around the needs of aging populations.
