Operation Access
What is Operation Access?
- What if we went to war with sickness?
- What if we had an army of health navigators?
- What if we learned about the best kept secrets for health worldwide from our own communities?
- You can’t know what you don’t know. The speed of innovations in medical research, technology and healthcare can be daunting for anyone. And some information has been known for hundreds of years but never appreciated. We will work to find this information and provide awareness to how others have stayed healthier, longer.
Live long, live well
Lessons from Japan, Elder Care Systems
What?
- With an increasingly aging population in Japan, we want to learn what kind of support elderly receive. How is a country with one of the largest populations and aging population able to sustain support and longevity?
Why?
- We would like to learn about successful methods for supporting a longer and healthier lifestyle through elderly centers.
How?
- We will interview elderly centers across Japan to see how they support the elders and share best practices they have seen.
- We will document what activities are available for elderly throughout the community.
