As the population of older adults continues to grow, there is an increasing need for healthcare solutions that can support healthy aging, improve quality of life, and address the unique challenges faced by this demographic. Digital healthcare technologies, including remote monitoring, telehealth, and personalized health apps, have the potential to revolutionize care for older adults by enabling timely interventions, enhancing access to care, and promoting independence. Our panel of experts will share their research on how digital tools can improve health outcomes for older adults, explore barriers to adoption, and discuss strategies to ensure these technologies are accessible, user-friendly, and effective. Eligible providers can earn up to 1.5 CE/CME contact hours for participating in the live webinar.
Learning Objectives:
At the conclusion of this Webinar, participants should be able to:
- Identify key design principles for developing older adult-friendly digital health tools that integrate EHR data and natural language processing to support personalized health communication and shared decision-making.
- Describe how telehealth-enabled transitional care models can improve medication adherence, self-management, and health outcomes in older adults following hospital discharge.
- Explain how mobile apps and SMART on FHIR-enabled platforms can collect and integrate patient-generated health data to inform clinical decision-making in age-friendly care.
