Abstract

Age-Friendly Health Systems is an initiative of The John A. Hartford Foundation and the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, in partnership with the American Hospital Association and the Catholic Health Association of the United States that uses a framework to ensure high-quality, person-centered care for older adults. The framework, called the 4 Ms, includes what matters, mobility, medications, and mentation. This work outlines a practical, evidence- based approach to implementing 4 Ms care in long-term care (LTC).
