Healthy Aging Advisory Committee
Background
Healthy aging and care for frail older adults were identified as a priority
of the AOHT in its initial 2020 application. To advance this work and support
coordinated, population-based approaches to care, the AOHT established
the Healthy Aging Advisory Committee to guide strategy, collaboration,
and system planning for older adults across the region.
Key Objectives
The Healthy Aging Advisory Committee will identify and prioritize
healthy aging initiatives based on community need and population
health data, while championing the expansion of key initiatives such as
early frailty identification and healthy aging education sessions. The
committee will also support coordination and alignment across related
planning tables and working groups to foster collaboration, collective
advocacy, and efficient use of resources while overseeing the implementation
of initiatives and change ideas outlined in the AOHT Healthy Aging Strategy.
