Abstract As healthcare providers struggle to reframe aging, framing Age-Friendly care is also occurring. The Arkansas Geriatric Education Collaborative (AGEC) is a HRSA Geriatric Workforce Enhancement Program with an objective to improve clinical health outcomes of older adults (OA) in primary care settings. As a member of the 2020 Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) Age-Friendly cohort, the AGEC has partnered with ARcare, an AR federally qualified healthcare clinic network, to implement the 4Ms in 4 rural clinics over 3 years. AGEC’s first goal of working with rural primary care clinics is to improve their knowledge of best practices of caring for OA. This was started by providing Geriatric Interdisciplinary Team Training to clinic staff, obtaining baseline data of common health related indicators for OA and starting regular geriatric focused training. Training on the 4Ms (Matters, Medication, Mentation Mobility) framework was next and completed followed by planning and implementation. The process was well received and results are promising. Year 1 data in one clinic show incremental improvements over baseline data in several areas including assessing Mobility with fall screens which has improved over 50% in one year and annual wellness visits (where all 4Ms are reviewed) have increased 30%. However, several areas of opportunities for improvement have also been noted and turned into quality improvement projects (QI). This includes an opportunity to improve depression screens for the clinic’s Mentation measure, which dropped almost 30% in one year. QI projects are ongoing to improve each of the elements of becoming age-friendly.

(1) Background: Patient satisfaction plays an important role in the perceived value, sustained utilization, and coverage of healthcare services by payers and clinics. (2) Methods: A 33-question survey was designed to assess patient satisfaction and perceived value for healthcare services provided by a clinical pharmacist in a single primary care facility. It included general items from validated patient satisfaction surveys (i.e., PROMIS®, CAHPS) and pharmacist-specific items identified in selected literature. It was offered to all patients who were presenting for a new, unique visit with the clinical pharmacist at the medical clinic between May 2019 and April 2020. (3) Results: A total of 66 patients agreed to take the survey (RR = 100%), and the responses were overwhelmingly positive. However, men were more likely than women to report higher satisfaction (X2(1, n = 920) = 0.67, p = 0.027), and new patients reported higher satisfaction than existing patients (X2(1, n = 1211) = 1.698, p = 0.037). (4) Conclusions: The findings of this study indicate a high degree of patient satisfaction with pharmacist-provided healthcare services in the primary care setting.

The feasibility of using the pedometer to measure activity level was investigated. 35 male and 49 female subjects wore a pedometer and kept an activity diary for five consecutive days. The correlation between the two measures and the day-to-day reliability were examined. The pedometer showed high reliability and was strongly correlated ( r = .72) with the diary. It was suggested that the pedometer particularly when combined with a descriptive tool, such as a diary, can be useful in research on the relationship of activity level to overweight and other health-related behaviors.

Summary: The Gudjonsson Compliance Scale (GCS), the COPE Scale, and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale were administered to 212 men and 212 women. Multiple regression of the test scores showed that low self-esteem and denial coping were the best predictors of compliance in both men and women. Significant sex differences emerged on all three scales, with women having lower self-esteem than men, being more compliant, and using different coping strategies when confronted with a stressful situation. The sex difference in compliance was mediated by differences in self-esteem between men and women.
