How they approach the work
Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.
- Clinically Informed Innovation Ecosystemmethodology: clinically_informed_researchBy embedding researchers within clinical operations and partnering with academic medical centers, we improve care quality and advance geriatric practice because real-time data and training integration enable rapid translation of evidence into service improvement.
- Cultural and Social Reimagining of Agingmethodology: cultural_discourse_on_agingBy fostering public discourse on aging through cultural, identity-based, and relational lenses, we shift societal perceptions toward positive aging because reframing later life as a period of continued meaning reduces stigma and promotes policy change.
- Integrated Behavioral and Chronic Disease Caremethodology: integrated_behavioral_healthBy combining physical health management with behavioral health support and peer-led education, we improve self-care and health outcomes in older adults because co-occurring conditions are addressed concurrently in a supportive, structured environment.
- Intergenerational Workforce Development Pipelinemethodology: culturally_competent_workforce_developmentBy training youth from under-resourced communities through immersive clinical and social engagement with older adults, we produce a more culturally competent elder care workforce and strengthen intergenerational respect because direct experience reduces ageism and builds vocational commitment.
- Person-Centered, Whole-Person Care Modelmethodology: whole_person_careBy integrating physical, psychological, social, and spiritual needs into a unified care approach, we improve elder well-being and dignity because holistic support addresses the root drivers of health decline and isolation in aging populations.
