American Indian Caregivers Policy: A Case Study
American Indian governments located in a region west of the Cascade mountain range and the government of the state of Washington offer programs to serve the needs of a growing American Indian elder and disabled population through the services of individuals caring for family members and also individuals employed to provide care. The American Indian and Alaska Native elder population that is disabled as a result of dementia rely on the care and he…
Older Adults’ Unmet Needs at the End of Life: A Cross-Country Comparison of the United States and England
Objectives: This study aimed to compare the end-of-life (EOL) experiences in concentration with place of death, for older adults in the U.S. and England. Methods: Weighted comparative analysis was conducted using harmonized Health and Retirement Study and English Longitudinal Study of Ageing datasets covering the period of 2006–2012. Results: At the EOL, more older adults in the U.S. (64.14%) than in England (54.09%) had unmet needs (I/ADLs). Hom…
Infusing MSW Programs With Disability Studies and Disability Justice: How to Create Explicit Curriculum
Master of social work (MSW) students will work with a significant number of people with disabilities and thus need to learn about disability as both a descriptive and a political identity. While new curriculum resources and competencies developed by the Council on Social Work Education for teaching about disability are a critical step, little has been written about successful approaches to infusing disability content into social work curricula. W…
Kinless Older Adults With Dementia: Qualitative Analysis of Data From the Adult Changes in Thought Study
Our qualitative analysis reveals that the life trajectories that led members of the analytic cohort to be kinless at dementia onset were quite varied. This research highlights the importance of nonfamily caregivers and participants' own roles as caregivers. Our findings suggest that clinicians and health systems may need to work with other parties to directly provide dementia caregiving support rather than rely on family, and address factors such…

Algorithmic harms and digital ageism in the use of surveillance technologies in nursing homes
Ageism has not been centered in scholarship on AI or algorithmic harms despite the ways in which older adults are both digitally marginalized and positioned as targets for surveillance technology and risk mitigation. In this translation paper, we put gerontology into conversation with scholarship on information and data technologies within critical disability, race, and feminist studies and explore algorithmic harms of surveillance technologies o…
Domain Experts on Dementia-Care Technologies: Mitigating Risk in Design and Implementation
There is an urgent need to learn how to appropriately integrate technologies into dementia care. The aims of this Delphi study were to project which technologies will be most prevalent in dementia care in five years, articulate potential benefits and risks, and identify specific options to mitigate risks. Participants were also asked to identify technologies that are most likely to cause value tensions and thus most warrant a conversation with an…
A Hard Pill to Swallow: Ethical Problems of Digital Medication
Late last year news broke that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the inaugural digital medication, Abilify MyCite (AMC) (FDA, 2017). AMC uses digital technology embedded in the medication to track ingestion with the purported goal of increasing adherence. As members of the field with diverse research and clinical interests, we were compelled to explicate ethical concerns regarding digital medication. Our areas of scholarship—co…
The Prevalence of Culture Change Practice in US Nursing Homes: Findings From a 2016/2017 Nationwide Survey
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Given the dynamic nursing home (NH) industry and evolving regulatory environment, depiction of contemporary NH culture-change (person/resident-centered) care practice is of interest. Thus, we aimed to portray the 2016/2017 prevalence of NH culture change-related processes and structures and to identify factors associated with greater practice prevalence. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: We administered a nationwide survey t…
Disparities in the Prevalence of Unmet Needs and Their Consequences Among Black and White Older Adults
This work highlights the complex relationship between race, need, unmet need, mortality, and nursing home entry
Active subjects of passive monitoring: Responses to a passive monitoring system in low-income independent living
Passive monitoring technology is beginning to be reimbursed by third-party payers in the United States of America. Given the low voluntary uptake of these technologies on the market, it is important to understand the concerns and perspectives of users, former users and non-users. In this paper, the range of ways older adults relate to passive monitoring in low-income independent-living residences is presented. This includes experiences of adoptio…
Successful Aging and Its Discontents: A Systematic Review of the Social Gerontology Literature
Envisioning a Gerontology-Enriched theory of Care
Care in old age is not a citizenship right in the United States, and unmet needs remain a hidden struggle. When measured against an ethics of care, long-term care (LTC) falls short. A critical step toward more just systems of LTC is to bring feminist theories of care into cooperation with gerontology and disability thought. Doing so will entail keeping all participants in the care relationship in focus and reworking the relationship of ethics of …
