The Hospital Elder Life Program is a new service provided by this facility to improve the hospital experience of older adult patients. Who are we? A team of staff who make sure older adults get the special consideration they need to get the best results from their hospital stay. The team includes a Clinical Nurse Specialist, Manager of Volunteers, Registered Nurse, Physician, and carefully trained Volunteers. This team works with regular hospital staff in all departments to meet each older patient s needs. Clinical Nurse Specialist: Megan Wheeler, MSN RN ACNS-BC Manager of Volunteers: Janice F. Moore, PhD CFLE Registered Nurse: (specific to site) Being in the hospital upsets normal routines of mental and physical activity just at the time a person is coping with illness. This disruption can cause older hospitalized people to lose their general mental and physical ability to function. The Hospital Elder Life Program helps keep the mind and body as active as possible in spite of illness. This benefits older patients and helps speed their full recovery. 2
