Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
AGING SERVICES: TODAY, AN INCREASING PERCENTAGE OF THE PEOPLE IN OUR REGION ARE AGE 50 OR OLDER, YET MOST FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES DON'T HAVE THE RESOURCES TO PROVIDE VITAL CARE TO OUR AGING POPULATION--ESPECIALLY IN RURAL AREAS AND TRIBAL COMMUNTIES. FOR AT-RISK OLDER PEOPLE IN RURAL AREAS, WE SUPPORT A PROGRAM THAT INCORPORATES THEIR MOST-TRUSTED MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS: PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS AND PHARMACISTS. FOR OLDER ADULTS IN THE SPOKANE TRIBE OF INDIANS, WE SUPPORT HEALTH COACHES, A CARE COORDINATOR AND FITNESS PROGRAMS. TARGETED RESULTS INCLUDE IMPROVING PATIENT ACTIVATION MEASURES (AN ASSESSMENT OF HOW CAPABLE AN INDIVIDUAL IS OF MANAGING THEIR OWN HEALTH AND HEALTHCARE). THIS EFFORT IS FUNDED THROUGH A GRANT FROM A PRIVATE FOUNDATION CONTRIBUTOR.
