Towards an Age Friendly Hospital

| We believe that an Age Friendly Hospital is one in which older people are actively involved in the design of an environment that is friendly and accessible to all. As an Age Friendly Hospital, we are committed to responding to what our community of older people needs. These needs were surfaced when older people were supported to get together with hospital officials as part of the Age Friendly Hospital programme. In developing our approach, we have recognised that a range of physical, organisational and cultural factors are interconnected. We are finding that age friendliness is good for everybody, because what is essential for older people is generally of benefit to other people as well. |
