ORGANIZATION DESCRIPTION

Founded in 1912, the Los Angeles Jewish Home is one of the largest single-source providers of senior care in the Los Angeles area. Its mission is to provide excellent senior care reflective of Jewish values.

GRANT PURPOSE

Connections to Care: Interoperability Platform is a central database to manage the patient's medical information from multiple sources. The Resident Centered Medical Home project allows the residents to direct their care based on their wishes through a coordinated effort with the staff and physicians. The goal is to enhance quality of life and improve the health and well-being of Jewish residents.

We are grateful to the Jewish Community Foundation for supporting our efforts to care for more frail seniors in our community. The awarding of the Cutting Edge Grant will enable us to develop the tools necessary to provide coordinated, comprehensive, quality care for vulnerable and at-risk seniors.

President & CEO, Los Angeles Jewish Home
