This project aims to develop a Southeast Michigan based collaborative to improve healthcare for older adults, focusing on virtual care quality and access. The partners will develop a virtual care geriatric family medicine curriculum to enhance primary care delivery for seniors, focusing on strategies to ensure that both clinical and social determinants of health are met in a virtual environment. Older adults from diverse backgrounds and experiences will serve as key informants to improve the training and lead a community-driven advisory board. There is potential for expansion to other residency programs, and alignment with the Michigan State University rural geriatric training program proposal.
