HEALTHY & Major Accomplishments MEANINGFUL 12 AGING. 27 Future Goals

28 Coming 2020 Events DIRECTOR’S NOTE The past year (2019) included groundbreaking accomplishments for the Con- sortium on Aging as members expanded efforts to promote healthy and mean- ingful aging. Our mission to provide quality patient care to older adults and to educate healthcare professionals and the community along with our desire to conduct meaningful gerontological research led to many accomplishments and multiple successes in 2019.

Consortium on Aging leadership made a commitment to join the Institute for Healthcare Improvement’s Age-Friendly Movement, a nationwide initiative to improve healthcare for older adults. This resulted in five UTHealth practices being designated as Age-Friendly and awarded Committed to Care Excellence badges. Through ongoing support and collaboration from the Consortium on Aging, UTHealth became the first healthcare system in Texas to receive this designation.

Enhancing emergency care for older adults is a priority for the Consortium on Aging at UTHealth. Multidisciplinary collaboration between the Department of Emergency Medicine at Memorial Hermann Texas Medical Center and the Consortium on Aging resulted in the designation of that unit to receive the first Level 3 Geriatric Accreditation in Houston. It is only the second emergency department in Texas to receive this designation.

In 2019 the Consortium on Aging continued to increase its membership and participation. There are currently more than 200 members that work in clinical practices, education, research, and different segments of the community related to healthy aging. Consortium on Aging events on topics related to promoting healthy aging through clinical practice, education, research and community out- reach attracted more participants than in previous years. Members were able to accomplish many of the goals and objectives with the ongoing support of the university, grateful patients, families and the greater Houston community. We are excited and look forward to more success in the coming year.

Sincere thanks,

Carmel B. Dyer, MD
