Summary:
Everyone wants to live well in their final years but this is a challenge, particularly for people in residential long term care settings such as nursing homes. Seniors – Adding Life To Years (SALTY) aims to add quality to late life for people living in nursing homes and for their caregivers, including family, friends, and volunteers who support their care. Our research is organized into interrelated streams: Monitor Care Practice, Map Promising Approaches to Care Relationships, Evaluate Innovative Practice, and Examine Policy Context. We give special attention to issues of dementia, gender and underrepresented voices.
