Dr. Toledo brings a rehabilitation focus to the discussion of baby boomer health care.
Speaker:
Santiago Toledo, M.D., medical director, Orthopedic Rehabilitation Program, Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago
Panel description:
Today, well before the Boomer pig-in-the-python has hit, a little more than 12.7 percent of Americans are over of 65 and the health care system is struggling to care for them. The problem is finding people with the high- and low-level skills needed to deliver care. This session will focus on what those in medicine, nursing, rehabilitation and in-home care are doing to maximize resources for increasingly long-lived seniors and what they are doing to plan for the future.
