For the last 20 years or so, the population in skilled nursing facilities has been getting younger. It was rare to see a 30- or 40-year-old in a traditional home for older adults and seniors. But that has changed. People between the ages of 16 to 64 now make up a sizable group whose characteristics are quite different from traditional residents. Characteristics including more severe mental health conditions, trauma-induced injuries, and neurological disorders will require specialized training and education to better meet unique needs of this population.

It discusses how to use Medicare's nursing home compare feature, stating that it is not the end all or be all means of selecting a facility with good quality care.

We are a collaborative research team improving outcomes for older adults living with serious illness & advancing palliative care science. PI: Joan G. Carpenter, PhD, CRNP, ACHPN, FPCN
Have you ever pondered the various types and forms of support that nursing home nursing staff require in providing palliative care for people living with dementia? Thanks to Sascha Bolt, PhD and her team for answering this research question through their work titled "Nursing Staff Needs in Providing Palliative Care for Persons With Dementia at Home or in Nursing Homes: A Survey" Their findings reveal that the top support needs among nursing staff involve dealing with family disagreements during end-of-life decision-making (58%), managing challenging behaviors (41%), and recognizing and alleviating pain (38%). Peer-to-peer learning emerged as the most desired form of support (51%). Read more about this insightful study here: https://Inkd.in/eG5wWKDE

Thoughtful, effective services in the fields of Elder Law, Estate Planning, Estate Administration, Guardianship and Conservatorship and Estate Administration
Excellent article in the NYT about assessing a nursing home for your loved ones. One key suggestion I would add is to utilize your state's website for nursing home administration to review required staffing levels and compare them to the facility's actual headcount. Check out the article here: #NursingHomeCare #QualityCare #ElderlyCare.

Leading trauma-informed nurses to prevent traumatic births and begin healing | 🚀 220K+ followers | 🎙 Podcast Host, Author, Speaker, Healthcare Consultant
Shining a Light on Obstetric Violence in Nursing - Join me for a panel discussion on Sept 19. As healthcare providers, it’s our duty to ensure every patient feels respected and safe. Yet, obstetric violence remains a harsh reality in some birth settings— unintentional whether through coercion, lack of informed consent, or dismissive care. Trauma-informed care is crucial in addressing these issues, fostering environments where patients’ voices are heard and respected. Let’s work together to create a culture of empathy, dignity, and empowerment in obstetric nursing. 💪 Join me for a panel discussion on this topic based on the recent publication: Exposing the Role of Labor and Delivery Nurses as Active Bystanders in Preventing or Perpetuating Obstetric Violence 2024 AWHONN Ohio Annual Conference - September 19-20 co-panelists: Cristen Pascucci, Paula Rojas Landivar, Maggie Runyon #ObstetricViolence #TraumaInformedCare #NursingLeadership #PatientAdvocacy
