CMA report urges organized care for Canada’s elderly
A two year CMA study chaired by Dr. Dorothy Ley calls for a unified system of elder care across hospitals, nursing homes and homes. It emphasizes continuity of care, a family physician coordinating services, service coordinators, and formal recognition of geriatrics as a medical specialty. It notes that informal caregiving by families should be supported and highlights income-related health access issues and need for research in aging and pharmacology.
