Enhabit, Inc. (NYSE: EHAB), a leading home health and hospice provider, today announced its recognition by the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) as an Age-Friendly Health Systems Participant.

Age-friendly Health Systems Participants are recognized for being on the journey to becoming an Age-Friendly Health System and have submitted a description of how they are putting four essential elements of care--the 4Ms--into practice with older patients.

"We're participating in this vital movement to share our practices and learn from others providing Age-Friendly Care," said Bud Langham, executive vice president of clinical excellence & strategy at Enhabit. "This initiative aligns with our vision to provide the best possible care for every older adult."

As part of the Age-Friendly Health Systems initiative, The John A. Hartford Foundation and the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, in partnership with the American Hospital Association and the Catholic Health Association of the United States,​ are helping hospitals and other care settings, such as home-based care, implement a set of evidence-based interventions specifically designed to improve care for older adults. These interventions focus on the 4Ms:

  • What Matters: Know and align care with each older adult's specific health outcome goals and care preferences in​clu​ding, but not limited to, end-of-life care and across settings of care.
  • Medication: If medication is necessary, use Age-Friendly medications that do not interfere with What Matters to the older adult, Mobility, or Mentation across settings of care.
  • Mentation: Prevent, identify, treat, and manage dementia, depression and delirium across settings of care.​
  • Mobility: Ensure that older adults move safely every day to maintain function and comfort to do What Matters.

Enhabit joins a select number of health care systems worldwide, working to tailor care to patients' goals and preferences.
