Permanente Live: Meeting the health needs of an aging population
May 15, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am PDT
Older adults are the fastest growing population in the United States. By 2030, people older than 65 will make up more than 21% of the population, up from 15% today. To ensure that the needs of this population are met, a health care delivery system that promotes aging with dignity, independence, and choice is necessary. Join a conversation with some of the nation’s most renowned health and aging leaders, as they discuss strategies for caring for Baby Boomers, the generation revolutionizing healthy aging while at the same time living longer with more complex health and social needs. This panel of experts will cover topics such as the importance of prevention, the role of family caregivers, health care system innovations, the role of primary care, recruiting and workforce retention, and policy recommendations needed to help bring about change.
Join this complimentary Permanente Live webinar, “Meeting the health needs of an aging population,” on May, 15, 2023, Monday, at 10 to 11 a.m. PT/1 to 2 p.m. ET and hear from health and aging leaders.
