Generational Health: A Blueprint for Systemwide Care Transformation for Older Adults
Description
As America’s population ages, hospitals and health systems are reimagining how to deliver care that honors dignity, independence, and what matters most to patients. In this conversation, Jon Zifferblatt, M.D., executive vice president and chief strategy officer at West Health, and Diane Wintz, M.D., critical care specialist and medical director of the Trauma Program at Sharp Memorial Hospital, discuss the creation of the Generational Health program — a collaborative partnership for older adult care that integrates geriatric emergency departments, surgical pathways and community programs. Learn how this partnership is transforming outcomes and offering a national blueprint for older adult care.
