aging and health for the US elderly

A project of CVRF and St. Louis University
The Cardiovascular Research Foundation and the Saint Louis University School of Public Health and Social Justice are seeking to establish the value of health literacy provided to the elderly in the US. This education called for by national leaders requires beneficial outcome evidence to be extended on a broad scale nationally to other health care organizations and institutions.
