Abstract
An especially vulnerable population is the disadvantaged and underserved older adult population residing in urban communities. This article describes a hospital-sponsored program in an urban community developed to improve access to health promotion and chronic disease control services for older adults. As part of the newly designed service, the hospital also sought to change its image from simply that of a “hospital” to that of a “community setting” dedicated to serving the comprehensive needs of older adults.
