Hartford Foundation, the American Hospital Association, and the Catholic Health Association of America. AFHS is a framework based on incorporating evidence-based practices into care in a variety of settings including inpatient, outpatient, and post-acute long-term care (PALTC). Further research on incorporating depression, cognitive impairment, and delirium screening in the LTC setting will be important in ensuring evidence-based care and shaping future AFHS guidelines.}, url = {http://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/9052}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.6083/000000620}, }
