This episode is the first in the CHAP Community Grand Rounds Series and introduces Age-Friendly Care, the 4M's, and how this methodology can help mitigate the issues surrounding our aging population - both clinically and operationally.

This activity is designed for all healthcare professionals working in community-based care and post-acute care with the goal of imparting the importance of Age-Friendly Care (AFC) as a care model for older adults. As Age-Friendly Care continues to grow and gain momentum, community-based care can be an integral part of AFC. Knowing the 4M’s and understanding its design is essential to clinical and operational alignment with referral sources.  

Participants are eligible to receive 1.0 Nursing Contact Hour upon viewing the entire video and completing a post-test with a score of 80% or higher.
