Adrian Haimovich, MD, PhD

Member-at-Large Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center

Candidate Statement

As Director for Geriatric Emergency Medicine at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, I am dedicated to improving the care of older adults in the emergency department. My research and operational work have focused on integrating geriatric principles into emergency care, particularly through the promotion of patient-centered care for seriously ill older adults.

I believe that EDs are uniquely positioned to serve as a critical intervention point for older patients, but that these interventions need to be grounded in pragmatism and resource efficiency. As a Member-at-Large, I want to use my experience advancing the science of practical ED-based goals of care discussions to support AGEM’s mission of advancing research, education, and clinical practice in geriatric emergency medicine.

If elected, I will work to create meaningful opportunities for professional development, mentorship, and collaboration within AGEM, particularly at the intersection of research and operations. I am passionate about fostering a vibrant and inclusive community where members can connect, share knowledge, and drive innovations that enhance the quality of care for our older patients.

I am grateful for the opportunity to run and would be honored to serve in this role, helping AGEM continue to lead the way in improving geriatric care in the emergency department.
