Implementing a Geriatrics Electronic Health Record (EHR) system is a transformative step that requires careful preparation and execution for success. Given the specific needs of senior patients—such as managing complex prescription regimens, tracking chronic diseases, and facilitating advance care planning—choosing the accurate EHR system and ensuring a smooth transition are essential for success. Assess geriatric practice to identify essential EHR features that enhance patient care, such as tools for managing polypharmacy and templates for cognitive assessments. Involve a diverse team, including physicians, nurses, and IT specialists, early in the process to ensure the chosen system fits smoothly into operations and meets the needs of elderly patients. This collaborative approach establishes a solid foundation for effective implementation and service delivery.

This 3-minute podcast from NPR about Geriatric ERs offers insight into how we can improve the quality of life and health outcomes for older adults. 👵🏾 Specialized Geriatric ERs: Hospitals are creating emergency departments specifically designed for older adults, with features like non-slip floors, ambient lighting, and communication tools to improve diagnosis accuracy and patient comfort. ➕ Need for More Geriatricians: There's a significant shortage of geriatric specialists compared to other medical fields, despite the growing elderly population. This lack of expertise can lead to diagnostic errors. 🤝 Collaborative Diagnosis Approach: Involving nurses, physicians, patients, and family members in the diagnostic process can lead to better outcomes for older patients.

Have you ever wondered why banks, vendors, and specialty clinics shower you with treats and goodies during the holidays? 🎁 It's their way of saying thank you and encouraging you to refer patients their way. External referrals can significantly boost your patient numbers by bringing in people who might not otherwise discover your services. 📈 I made it a point to visit pediatricians, schools, churches, imaging centers, and private offices—anywhere that could refer patients to our health center. Even if they offer similar services, like primary care or pediatrics, they might not have the same depth in dental or behavioral health. 🦷 Plus, they might not have an in-house pharmacy—so why not be the one-stop shop for comprehensive care? Another way to know where your external referrals are coming from is to run a report from your electronic health record. You'll see who often refers to you (send them a thank you card or basket of goodies!) 🍽️ and who has referred here and there but not very consistently. Add those who don't refer to you consistently to your communication plan and visit them (make sure to bring lunch). Tell them the services you provide, the patient population you see, what insurances you take, that you have a sliding fee discount program, and tell them how to refer people to you. If you still get referrals via fax, bring them a fax coversheet they can use with your fax number pre-populated on it, along with the other information you need to complete the referral. Building solid relationships with those who can refer patients your way isn't just good business—it's a way to expand access to quality healthcare in your community and strengthen your health center's impact. #ReferralMarketing #PatientCare #HealthcareNetworking #HealthCenterGrowth #CommunityHealth #MedicalReferrals #PatientReferrals #HealthcareStrategy #BusinessDevelopment #HealthcareOutreach #CHC #FQHC

👵🏼👨🏽⚕️ Navigating Senior Care: The Challenge of Finding Specialized Doctors 👨🏽⚕️👵🏼 As our population ages, the demand for geriatricians—doctors specializing in senior care—is more critical than ever. Yet, finding a doctor trained to address the unique health needs of those over 65 remains a significant challenge. 🚶♀️💊 Why the scarcity? Despite their vital role, geriatricians make up less than 1% of all physicians in the U.S. This gap is due to several factors: Stereotypes about aging deter medical students. Lower pay in geriatrics compared to other medical fields. Limited exposure during medical training. Geriatricians don't just manage illnesses; they understand the profound interplay between various age-related health issues and the importance of maintaining mobility and independence in older adults. 🧠🩺 Pat Early's experience highlights the life-changing support a geriatrician can offer, from managing complex health conditions to enhancing daily life quality through thoughtful, personalized care. 🌟 Isn't it time we reevaluate how our healthcare system prepares for an aging population? More training, better incentives, and greater recognition of geriatrics are crucial steps forward. #SeniorCare #Geriatrics #Healthcare #AgingPopulation #TPCTN As America ages, there are few doctors who specialize in seniors’ care - The Washington Post
