IHI's New My Health Checklist

Publication Date: August 5, 2024

The Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) has released a new, comprehensive guide designed to help older adults assess all aspects of their health: My Health Checklist. The free checklist supports important tasks like tracking medications while also guiding individuals to reflect on what’s going well with their health and well-being, identify areas for improvement, and articulate questions or concerns they can share with their care teams.

This tool is the newest in a wealth of resources from IHI that support better communication and connection between individuals and the health care professionals who care for them. Long-time Coalition collaborator, Zamawa Arenas, founder and CEO of Flowetik, partnered with IHI to test the content with older adults.
