Health care is too often fragmented within health systems, lacking patient-centeredness, and integration between settings and providers, impeding the highest level of care and counter to the promotion of healthy ageing. In this episode, IFA’s Dr. Jane Barratt is joined by Dr. John Muscedere, Professor of Critical Care Medicine in the Faculty of Health Sciences at Queen's University in Canada and the Scientific Director, and Chief Executive Officer of the Canadian Frailty Network, and Dr. Niamh Lennox-Chhugani, Chief Executive and Director of Research at the International Foundation for Integrated Care, to discuss the importance of patient centeredness in health systems, bringing specific attention to the prevention, management and care for frailty and bone health, as well as current gaps and strategies for policy and practice improvement.
