The National Collaboratory to Address Elder Mistreatment has developed a toolkit for use by health systems and communities to improve the safety and wellbeing of older adults. Focused on screening and referral in Emergency Departments, the toolkit also offers resources for clinicians and health systems to strengthen relationships with community resources that can support older adults after discharge. This toolkit was successfully integrated into five Emergency Departments during the feasibility trial and is now being disseminated nationally.
