"The Senior Friendly Care (sfCare) Getting Started Toolkit is a companion resource to the sfCare Framework.
It helps your healthcare organization assess where they are on their sfCare journey, and provides practical resources for implementing real change. This toolkit helps answer questions like:
- How do we implement the sfCare Framework?
- How do we know how senior-friendly our organization is, and what can we do to improve?
- How do we compare to other organizations like ours?
- What is a "senior-friendly lens"?
The sfCare Framework provides a foundation for achieving the best possible outcomes for older adults. The Framework’s guiding principles and defining statements collectively describe what senior friendly care looks like, but it is not a “how to guide”.
The Toolkit helps bring this foundational vision to life by providing actionable recommendations and resources. The Senior Friendly Care Getting Started Toolkit includes:
- Self-Assessment Tool
- Implementation Resources
- Intro to sfCare training
The sfCare Getting Started Toolkit will be updated regularly with new tools and resources. The most recent version of this toolkit is available at https://www.rgptoronto.ca/resources/sfcare-tools/
