Age Well: Age Friendly

Age-Friendly care is an initiative aimed at helping older adults thrive as they age. It focuses on evidence-based practices across four key areas, known as the 4Ms:

  1. What Matters Most: This involves understanding and aligning care with each older adult’s specific health outcome goals and preferences.
  2. Medication: Ensuring the use of age-friendly medications that do not interfere with an individual’s priorities, mobility, or mental health.
  3. Mentation: Preventing, identifying, treating, and managing delirium, depression, and dementia.
  4. Mobility: Promoting safe movement to maintain function and overall well-being.

MHHC is adopting these principles to provide better care for aging populations
