S6E7 | The Path to Purposeful and Independent Aging | The Health Pulse Podcast

Описание: What if aging meant maintaining independence and dignity at home and in the community? In this episode, Dr. Sarita Mohanty, President and CEO of The SCAN Foundation, speaks about the foundation’s innovative community-based, person-centered approach to elder care for marginalized adults. The conversation touches on common challenges like fragmented care, affordability, cultural barriers and loneliness – a major public health issue. Did you know that loneliness can harm your health as much as smoking 15 cigarettes a day? Mohanty discusses the importance of designing systems with the input of older adults in mind for policy and system reforms. She explains that technology offers significant potential for prediction, prevention and intervention, and stresses the importance of adaptable, unbiased AI algorithms. Tune in for the foundation’s formula for purposeful and dignified aging and Mohanty’s insights into the role of technology.
