Barriers and facilitators to integrated mental health and HIV care
Since the 1980s when the HIV epidemic began, HIV and substance use have been intricately linked. A promising area for improving access to care and treatment for people living and aging with HIV and substance use is through integrated care (i.e., "the systematic coordination of general and behavioral healthcare"). There is a recognized need to increase collaboration and integration of mental health, substance use, and primary care providers, inclu…

Proactive Care-Seeking Strategies Among Adults Aging Solo With Early Dementia
Adults without close family are heterogeneous and have variable resources available to address care needs associated with dementia progression. Common values of retaining independence and minimizing burden to others may be helpful in motivating adults aging solo to undertake planning and help-seeking early
Is Electronic Information Exchange Associated With Lower 30-Day Readmission Charges Among Medicare Beneficiaries
OBJECTIVE: Fragmented readmissions, when admission and readmission occur at different hospitals, are associated with increased charges compared with nonfragmented readmissions. We assessed if hospital participation in health information exchange (HIE) was associated with differences in total charges in fragmented readmissions. DATA SOURCE: Medicare Fee-for-Service Data, 2018. STUDY DESIGN: We used generalized linear models with hospital referral …
Remote versus In-Person Health Education
Objectives Health education may improve health in geriatric patients. To evaluate differences between remote and in-person education, the DREAMS ( Developing a Research Participation Enhancement and Advocacy Training Program for Diverse Seniors) health seminar series compared in-person and remote learning groups to assess feasibility, satisfaction, adherence, health literacy, and cognitive outcomes. Research Design Nonrandomized two-arm intervent…
Turning It Over to God
OBJECTIVES: Assisted living (AL), a popular long-term care setting for older Americans, increasingly is a site for end-of-life care. Although most residents prefer AL to be their final home, relatively little is known about end-of-life preferences and advance care planning, especially among African American residents. Our research addresses this knowledge gap. METHODS: Informed by grounded theory, we present an analysis of qualitative data collec…

Complementary and Alternative Medicine Among Persons living with HIV in the Era of Combined Antiretroviral Treatment
Maneuvering Together, Apart, and at Odds
Care convoys clearly shape care experiences and outcomes. Identifying strategies for establishing effective communication and collaboration practices and promoting convoy member consensus, particularly over time, is essential to the creation and maintenance of successful and supportive care partnerships
Exposing the Backstage
In this article, we analyze the research experiences associated with a longitudinal qualitative study of residents' care networks in assisted living. Using data from researcher meetings, field notes, and memos, we critically examine our design and decision making and accompanying methodological implications. We focus on one complete wave of data collection involving 28 residents and 114 care network members in four diverse settings followed for 2…
Practical Matters and Ultimate Concerns, 'Doing,' and 'Being
Systematic observational studies of the chaplain's role and function in the secular health-care setting are few. With an episode-based diary recorded on handheld digital tablets, palliative care chaplains at a large urban hospital with a diverse patient population recorded details of patient visits in near-real time. Cluster analysis revealed groups of activities we called 'doing' and 'being,' and conversation topics of 'practical matters' and 'u…

Caregiving Strain and All-Cause Mortality
High perceived caregiving strain is associated with increased all-cause mortality after controlling for appropriate covariates. High caregiving strain constitutes a significant health concern and these caregivers should be targeted for appropriate interventions
Strangers and Friends
Our explanatory framework reveals the dynamic and variable nature of coresident relationships and raises additional questions about social career variability, trajectories, and transitions. We discuss implications for practice including the need for useable spaces, thoughtful activity programming, and the promotion of neighboring through staff and family involvement

Kinship Care in Rural Georgia Communities
In 2005, the Georgia Division of Aging Services initiated the Kinship Care Program to provide services to grandparents raising grandchildren throughout Georgia's 12 regional Area Agencies on Aging. Many of the grandparents who receive Division of Aging Services services reside in rural communities. To assess the impact of the program among rural grandparents and learn more about their needs, an evaluation study was conducted with 30 grandparents …

Communities of Care
"Little is known about why and when African American elders seek formal long-term care, or about the characteristics of assisted living environments they consider most desirable. Drawing on qualitative studies conducted between 1998 and 2001, the authors of Communities of Care provide important information on historic and current trends in assisted living systems serving African Americans." "Focusing on six facilities that have become models of l…
Managing Decline in Assisted Living
Findings point out the complexity of aging in place in ALFs and the need for a coordinated effort by facilities, residents, and families in the management of resident decline. Findings further highlight the necessity of residents being well informed about both their own needs and the capacity of a facility to meet them

Managing the Care Needs of Low-Income Board-and-Care Home Residents
Small, low-income board-and-care homes play a critical role in the long-term care system, serving a variety of at-risk groups, including chronically mentally ill individuals, frail elders, and developmentally disabled adults. Unfortunately, the supply of homes available to serve these populations is decreasing. The purpose of this study, based on an in-depth ethnographic case study of one small (13-bed) African American-owned and -operated home i…
