| Popis: | The Medication Management Evidence Brief included in this issue is part of a National Framework for Geriatric Home Care Excellence to benefit older patients through practice improvement efforts. The Center for Home Care Policy & Research, Visiting Nurse Service of New York, spearheaded this initiative with funding from the John A. Hartford Foundation. A National Advisory Council of experts in geriatrics and home care guided development of the Framework by building on the foundation of what older adults want from home care (eg, quality of life, choices, and optimal function). They identified cross-cutting principles of high quality care (eg, relationship-centered, interdisciplinary, evidence-based, individualized, focused on communication, and care over the long-term) and strategies for implementing best practices, which are summarized in an Initiative Overview Brief. In addition to Medication Management, Evidence Briefs were produced on five other key practice areas for geriatric home care. The Framework recommendations and all the briefs are available at http://champ-program.org/framework/. |
