Thank you @YaleMed for highlighting our research demonstrating inequities in rehabilitation delivery to older adults after ICU hospitalization Grateful to mentors @LFerranteMD @MrDisability @hmkyale @JRayFalvey @DrEmmaZang @YaleGeriatrics @YalePCCSM @NIHAging
A new study found that social factors, such as income and education, can be associated with whether an older adult receives home-based rehabilitation services after an intensive care unit (ICU) stay. Learn more from @snigdhajain89 of @YalePCCSM. medicine.yale.edu/internal-m…

Our frailty summit manuscript is available, open access, in Chest Critical Care kwnsfk27.r.eu-west-1.awstrac… With aging populations, there are ever increasing numbers of critically ill frail persons. Filling existing knowledge gaps such that we can improve care is paramount.
