Interventions

Multifactorial Falls Assessmentother

The Geriatric Multifactorial Falls Assessment Clinic is a component of GERIATRIC-PACT, a frail-elderly primary care patient-centered medical home with care provided by an inter-professional teamlet consisting of a geriatrician, geriatric nurse practitioner, clinical pharmacist, licensed practical nurse, nurse care manager, social worker, and dietitian. GERIATRIC-PACT operates with increased ancillary support compared to Primary Care PACT. Falls assessment patients were referred by primary care providers and were evaluated and treated by the GERIATRIC-PACT teamlet, including ordering of tests and medication adjustment, with an average of two visits and active follow-up for one year.
