If this is true... what happens NEXT?

MOMENTUM Cards
Yes! If we became the leaders confronting the health issues of the aging baby boomers we would lead locally and nationally!
Louise Aronson
This is about un locking the secrets of life. Once done for the old who can fund it heals all ages
Jenifer Borgia
UCSF invests heavily in aging, including education, research, and clinical care. #teamaging
Alex Smith
Enter your idea here!

Incentivize student participation in aging-related fields. Other fields too lucrative when students have to pay off med school debt. #CPC.

homecare using emerging #socialstructured technologies for sustainable approach to preventing acute institutionalization #social
Cary Sweeney
How about a funded initiative / office to directly work with medicare to innovate in delivery without risking funding?

What if the generations living today are the last old? How does teamaging focus research on living gracefully,intelligently, healthfully?
Jenifer Borgia
To make impact we must play a role in policy-making to influence urban planning & service delivery design (eg china's cities for the aging)

Need to consider the entire age spectrum- cradle to grave

...at the same time, we cannot let care for the aged drain resources from children.
Bryce
yes, but need to take a #lifecourse approach to improve health #TeamCHC
SFGreen
Also we need to know each each age group criteria and how to deal with.
Sparky Rody
There is no point in just focusing on the aging crowd. The health care need to be from the embryo.
Spock25
Care for the aging IS important, but lots of evidence that prevention and public health efforts early in life are more bang for buck #chc
mthomas
Yes: HEALTH CARE use is about AGING. But if we keep putting most $ into treatment we can't stop the flood of disease of next generations.
Elissa
Resources are scarce, and there is clear evidence that early life insults unfold into later life risk. #CHC
#TEAMCHC
Do you mean "dealing with" the aging population or "serving and caring for" the aging population? Watch dehumanizing language.
NothingAboutUSWithoutUs
Need to focus on elderly and youth NOW. As youth become educated and healthier, we will hopefully spend less on them as adults.

Play ADAPTATION
Yes, and...how might this EVOLVE?
The trial is not open.
ADAPTATION Cards
Yes! What needs does our aging population have and how can we address them using current and future resources? #CPC
susan.riddle
Need to focus on caregiver needs as family members are relied on by the heatlth care system, but currently neglected #CPC #teamaging
Eric Widera
Caregivers are expected to take on complex care at home, a task that requires entire health care teams in hospitals. #CPC #teamaging
TeamAging
Family caregivers are often thrust into this position, with no training and little support. Precision Medicine in 2025 needs a focus on them
Eric Widera
We need to have the expertise to understand individual patient goals to guide them to appropriate resource#TeamAging

Current grade of transitions from hospital to nursing homes: F. Lot's of room for UCSF to lead! #teamaging
Alex Smith
Put the aging population to work - provide them with healthcare credits or discounts in exchange for health-focused service contributions
Scylax
Yes. And this needs to be a core part of our research, education, and clinical missions #teamaging

Deal with the entirety of family care issues: aging, children, affordability even pet care. #teamcls #workplaceofchoice

Let's develop an academic nursing home affiliated with UCSF! #TeamAging

How might uncertainties in Social Security and Medicare hinder this vision and how can we overcome this?
K-Boogie
Are the elderly "entitled" to health care as part of a social contract? Or distribute resources equally across lifespan?
Alex Smith
Jane Gross has noted that we spend massive $$ on elder health, but not on what elders need? How can UCSF make this better? #teamaging
geri_doc
How can we utilize the experience and knowledge that seniors have to partner with them to find innovative solutions?
AnnaBanana
Will we reach a point where age effects medical priority?
#TeamAlphaQ4Data
Dental/oral health often overlooked. Effects infections and nutrition among others. Need focus in IPE on these needs #education
Dorothy.Perry
How can HC costs for the elderly become affordable?
team aging
Can we build a network focused on health issues entirely for the elderly? From minor illnesses to life-threatening diseases? #Esther #CPC
Esther
360 degree care. If family caregivers are not an option for aging, can UCSF provide not just medical support, but emotional & social support
blackbird84
We are all an aging population. Embrace aging! What does it mean to age gracefully? I think accepting aging is a part of it.
