In this episode, Dr. Joneigh Khaldun sits down with Ramsey Alwin, President and CEO of the National Council on Aging (NCOA), for a conversation about ways that public health practitioners can advance healthy aging on a population level. Together, they discuss key issues facing the aging population and explore meaningful opportunities for the public health sector to support seniors. Alwin also shares initiatives and programs that NCOA offers, such as fall prevention and chronic disease self-management and spotlights free tools and community supports that enable older adults to remain healthy and independent as they age.
