Intro

To celebrate National Rural Health Day, Stratis Health President and CEO Jennifer Lundblad hosts a conversation about how rural hospitals, especially rural emergency departments, can improve care for their older adult patients while contributing to building a fair, just, and equitable health care system. Jennifer is joined by two expert colleagues, Kevin Biese, associate professor of emergency and internal medicine at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill School of Medicine and co-principal investigator at the Geriatrics Emergency Department Collaborative (GEDC), and Kristie Foster, the emergency department nurse manager at Alice Peck Day Memorial Hospital (APD) in Lebanon, New Hampshire.
