The study of age and aging is complex and needs to be carried out by scholars from myriad disciplines, making interdisciplinary collaboration paramount. Non-formal, extracurricular, and interdisciplinary networks are increasingly filling gaps in academia's largely siloed disciplinary training. This study examines the experiences of trainees (undergraduate, graduate, and post-graduate students) who belonged to one such network devoted to interdisciplinary approaches to education and research on aging. Fifty-three trainees completed the survey. Among respondents, some faculties (e.g., Health Sciences) were disproportionately represented over others (e.g., Business, Engineering, and Humanities). Most trainees valued their participation in the interdisciplinary network for research on aging. They also valued expanding their social and professional network, the nature of which was qualitatively described in open-text responses. We then relate our findings to three types of social capital: bonding; bridging; and linking. Finally, we conclude with recommendations for the intentional design and/or refinement of similar networks to maximize value to trainees, provide the skills necessary for interdisciplinary collaboration, and foster egalitarian and representative participation therein.","PeriodicalId":46431,"journal":{"name":"GERONTOLOGY & GERIATRICS EDUCATION","volume":"44 3","pages":"429-448"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9692663","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A multi-step education model was designed to advance competencies in geriatrics and Interprofessional Collaborative Practice (IPCP) for health profession students focused on each element of the Quadruple Aim. The goals of this education were to equip students with knowledge and experience to provide team-based care for older adults and achieve satisfaction with the education program. The education steps consisted of online didactics, team icebreaker, skills practice, professional huddles, and interprofessional simulation with debriefing. Over 2,300 students and 87 facilitators from 16 professions completed the training over three years. A positive statistically significant increase was found between pre- and post-measures of IPCP competency, knowledge, and attitudes. Additionally, high satisfaction with the education was reported by students and facilitators. By providing positive geriatric education and experiences for health students to work in interprofessional teams, it can translate into future improvements in older adult population health, health care provider job satisfaction, and reduced health care costs.","PeriodicalId":46431,"journal":{"name":"GERONTOLOGY & GERIATRICS EDUCATION","volume":"44 3","pages":"449-465"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9693919","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is a dearth of literature addressing evidence-based, trauma-informed training for direct care staff, yet CMS now requires trauma-informed care in nursing homes. Five focus groups exploring trauma and resilience-related concepts were conducted using an expressive-collaborative model with 18 CNAs at four nursing homes. A thematic analysis was conducted and themes were identified related to identity, relationships with residents, organizational values, and personal wellness. CNAs voiced frustration at limited time and support to implement well-being or stress management practices. Relationships with residents were sources of strength and, conversely, sources of emotional injury due to disrespect, disregard, and hostile behavior directed at CNAs. Central to health and well-being, CNAs called for change within facility cultures experienced as disrespectful, inequitable, and contrary to work-life balance. Trauma-informed training can be used to give particular attention to direct care staff. Administrators would benefit from learning about trauma and resilience among CNAs and precipitating organizational factors such as reasonable care ratios, equitable benefits, and peer support that impact CNA well-being, job satisfaction, and quality of care.
