Help your ED provide quality care for older adults with HANYS’ GEDA collaborative
With generous support from the John A. Hartford Foundation, HANYS is pleased to launch our next statewide Geriatric Emergency Department Accreditation collaborative April 21. GEDA is a nationwide initiative developed by leaders in emergency medicine to ensure older patients receive well-coordinated, appropriate, quality care during every ED encounter.
