简要总结
Today's population is living longer than prior generations. Senior patients, defined as 65 years or older, are therefore increasing in number, and representing a larger number of hospitalized patients. Thus, assessing and addressing the needs of the growing number of older ER users is essential. The overall objective of the study is to examine the feasibility and the epidemiology of two screening tools ("Programme de Recherche sur l'Intégration des Services pour le Maintien de l'Autonomie" (PRISMA-7) and Emergency Room Evaluation and recommendations (ER2)) used in the Emergency Room of Jewish General Hospital to screen older patients (i.e.; ≥65 years) at risk of adverse health events. A prospective observational cohort design will be used for the study's two phases; phase 1- assessment and phase 2- assessment as well as recommendations.
