DESCRIPTION

Join Drs. Timothy Farrell and Joseph Nnodim in a moderated discussion with Dr. Annie Medina-Walpole, exploring the pervasive issue of ageism. This video module examines the impact of ageism on individuals and societies, with a particular focus on its implications within the healthcare system. Discover how this invisible “-ism” affects quality of care and patient outcomes and gain a deeper understanding of the need for awareness and action against this often-overlooked bias. The discussion also includes strategies to address and combat ageism, and the importance of a more inclusive and equitable approach to healthcare for all.

An accompanying PowerPoint presentation, developed by Drs. Farrell and Nnodim, is also available for reference and teaching slides use.
