鉴于老龄人口的迅速增长，其中许多人有复杂的健康和社会需求，安全和有效地照顾老年人是一个至关重要的问题。与此同时，医疗保健提供环境正在迅速变化，为改善老年人的护理提供了一系列新的机会。我们描述的背景，循证的变化，测试，扩大规模，和传播战略的一部分，设计的创造卫生友好的卫生系统倡议。目标是到2020年覆盖美国20%的医院和卫生系统，并计划在随后几年覆盖更多的医院和卫生系统。
Safe and effective care of older adults is a crucial issue given the rapid growth of the aging demographic, many of whom have complex health and social needs. At the same time, the health care delivery environment is rapidly changing, offering a new set of opportunities to improve care of older adults. We describe the background, evidence-based changes, and testing, scale-up, and spread strategy that are part of the design of the Creating Age-Friendly Health Systems initiative. The goal is to reach 20% of U.S. hospitals and health systems by 2020, with plans to reach additional hospitals and health systems in subsequent years.
