Working to improve the health system for older adults

The Geriatric Health Systems (GHS) Research Group is a collaborative team of interdisciplinary researchers, students, and research staff who are committed to understanding, and solving health system challenges that affect the quality of care, and the quality of life of older people. We work in close partnership with health system organizations, stakeholders, and older adults to ensure that our research has relevance to practice and policy.

Our research priorities include:

• Improving primary care for older adults
• Advancing aging and technology 
• Promoting patient and citizen engagement in health care
• Enhancing health system integration.
