The Healthcare Association of New York State offers a learning community in New York designed for hospitals pursuing geriatric emergency department accreditation. The goal is to improve care provided to older adults in the emergency department, establish resources required to provide high-quality care, focus on providing the highest standard of care for older adults in the community. Hospitals in rural communities are encouraged to participate.
The collaborative will promote improvements in:
- Staffing and education
- Geriatric-focused policies and protocols, including transitions of care
- Quality improvement and metrics
- Optimal preparation of the environment
Hospitals in New York are eligible to apply.
There are no fees to participate in the collaborative or apply for initial Level 3 (Bronze) accreditation.
Scholarships to support the Geriatric Emergency Department Accreditation teams are available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Once 18 teams new to accreditation have enrolled, funds will be exhausted.
