“Nurses have a lot of answers. We're problem solvers. We're innovators,” says Dr. Sarah Szanton, who is a case in point for using her experience doing home visits as a nurse practitioner to help pioneer an innovative model of elder care called CAPABLE. It’s a four-month long program in which a nurse, occupational therapist and handy worker address difficulties an older adult may have in daily living as well as the safety issues in their home so they are able to age in place while achieving the best possible health status and quality of life. So far, it has served 10,000 people in twenty-three states, and efforts are underway to scale the model as broadly as possible to meet the needs of the country’s burgeoning senior population. “If the CAPABLE program were a drug, it would be a blockbuster. It cuts disability in half and saves seven times what it costs,” she explains. As you’ll learn in this informative conversation with our new Raise the Line host Caleb Furnas, Dr. Szanton is in a position to shape healthcare delivery far beyond elder care in her role as dean of the Johns Hopkins School of Nursing. Tune in to learn about a community healthcare model being developed based on work in Costa Rica, and how the school deploys simulation technologies to hone difficult skills and develop empathy for both patients and fellow providers.
