Great Plains Quality Innovation Network is excited to partner with the University of North Dakota to improve access to care for patients with complex conditions in rural and underserved communities through the Geriatric and Age Friendly Care TeleEcho™ Series. These sessions will address knowledge gaps and expand understanding of effective, high quality medical and behavioral treatments for conditions common among the senior patient population.

We are hosting a ‘Huddle’ after each Geriatric and Age Friendly Care TeleEcho session hosted by the University of North Dakota. Today at noon, we will dialogue and share best practices on the topic of Minimum Cognitive Impairment as a supplement to the University of North Dakota June 9 TeleEcho session on the same topic. Be sure to register!

These huddles will further the discussion on how each topic relates to the 4Ms framework and how to incorporate into your area of practice. Our team will answer questions and offer assistance and resources.

Access information on the North Dakota Geriatric and Age Friendly Care Series. Visit the Great Plains QIN Calendar of Events for event information and registration details.

Open to healthcare professionals in North Dakota and South Dakota
