CHAMP (or the Collaboration for Homecare Advances in
Management and Practice) is the first American program developed to advance
homecare excellence for older adults. The program is intended to
provide educational resources, tools and/or expert advice based on the latest
evidence-based practice in geriatric care.
There are three comprehensive toolkits available on
the website: Geriatric
Falls Prevention Toolkit, Geriatric
Medication Management Toolkit and Geriatric
Care Transitions Toolkit. The toolkits are intended for
homecare workers, patients/caregivers and paraprofessionals and include
information on screening, communication, interventions and the most recent
practice guidelines.
The website also hosts a variety of other toolkits and
tools that are related to other popular geriatric topics. The tools
page allows you to search the CHAMP library for evidence-based practice
tools, whereas the evidence base page allows you to browse organized by
popular topics.
