About the Forum: Leslie Pelton will discuss the Age-Friendly Health Systems Initiative and what the 4Ms mean, sharing experiences on how this has been implemented around the country.
We invite healthcare leaders and providers – executives, providers, practitioners, clinicians, educators, caregivers, and researchers – from all areas across the continuum of care to join us as we learn together about ways to better integrate and continually improve care and services that are mission-critical to serve older adults. This forum launches the EPGS’ commitment to such a collaborative and far-reaching initiative.
