Denise Mohess, MD, is Chief of Geriatrics at Inova Fairfax Hospital Tell Us a Little Bit About the Help Program. The goal of HELP, which stands for Hospital Elder Life Program, is to maintain function for the elderly while they’re at Inova Fairfax Hospital. When elderly people are in the hospital they are at risk for loss of strength and agility, as well as confusion and delirium. HELP works to ensure that these patients leave the hospital in as good or better shape than they were when they went in. One of the most special things about HELP is that it’s all done by volunteers.

NICHE's collaborative nurse-driven approach to senior care draws on the unified expertise of an elderly patient's entire team of caregivers. Using NICHE guidelines, nurses, physicians, pharmacists, rehabilitation therapists, social workers, dietary staff and others work together to provide the most coordinated, effective care possible. NICHE develops expertise among clinicians by offering specialized geriatrics education in topics critical to the care of seniors, including normal changes of aging, pharmacology, nutrition, and cognition.
