Recent research has found that more can be done to improve dementia care in hospitals. One of the strategies suggested to help achieve this objective is to provide dementia education programs to hospital staff. Such programs have the potential to improve the knowledge, attitudes, and skills of staff in caring for people with dementia to optimize their in-hospital experiences and clinical outcomes. This paper reports a mixed-methods evaluation of a dementia education program delivered to staff at a hospital in Melbourne, Australia. The quantitative evaluation found significant improvements in participant's knowledge of dementia but did not show significant improvements in \"social comfort,\" a measure of how comfortable respondents are around people with dementia. Qualitative interview data supported the quantitative finding regarding improvements in knowledge about dementia and demonstrated participants were largely satisfied with the content of the education program. However, qualitative data also indicated a problem with engagement with some non-clinical staff. There is a need to improve the quality of care for patients with dementia in hospitals, and this study shows that a dementia education program can be effective in improving staff knowledge about people with dementia.","PeriodicalId":46431,"journal":{"name":"GERONTOLOGY & GERIATRICS EDUCATION","volume":" ","pages":"268-285"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142401594","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}

However, the need to advance age inclusivity across our colleges and universities has become a pressing issue for many reasons which call for extending DEI efforts. An important empirical step in this direction is identifying what students, faculty, and staff perceive about age inclusivity on their campuses. To this end, the present study conducted a qualitative analysis of responses to an open-ended question about age inclusivity by a national sample of 412 students, faculty, and staff. Four key themes emerged from their responses: 1) age inclusivity in higher education is a valuable initiative (40% of responses); 2) age inclusivity only works if enacted appropriately/thoughtfully (12%); 3) age inclusivity should not be a focus in higher education (26%); and 4) age inclusivity is an unfamiliar concept (12%). Other comments reinforced the existence of ageism on campuses. Findings from this study can help to inform why and how age-inclusive efforts can be better integrated into ongoing DEI campus efforts.","PeriodicalId":46431,"journal":{"name":"GERONTOLOGY & GERIATRICS EDUCATION","volume":" ","pages":"1-13"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143701760","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}

The inventory was completed by 10 administrators to determine the presence of age-friendly campus practices and environmental features at the university. The survey was completed by 178 faculty, 608 staff, and 1,167 students to understand their awareness and perceptions of age-friendly practices and features covered by the inventory. We found that the ICCS was transferrable to our national and institutional context with minor modifications. Some challenges were experienced in the administration of the instrument, particularly the survey due to administrative complexities in conducting a survey at a large institution. The results of the assessment indicated that our university is moderately age-friendly, but most survey participants were unaware of its age-friendly elements. The findings from this baseline assessment provided valuable insights that will inform the development of an action plan to enhance the University of Calgary's age-friendliness.","PeriodicalId":46431,"journal":{"name":"GERONTOLOGY & GERIATRICS EDUCATION","volume":" ","pages":"1-13"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143524636","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}

Understanding the factors influencing health profession students' intention to work with older adults is crucial for addressing this workforce shortage. Using the Theory of Planned Behavior, this study surveyed 244 health profession students at a mid-sized public comprehensive university in the Southeast. Structural equation modeling showed a good fit with χ2 = 625.981, df = 340, p < 0.001, CFI = 0.918, RMSEA = 0.059, SRMR = 0.064, and TLI = 0.908. The results indicated that attitudes and subjective norms play critical roles in shaping health profession students' intention toward geriatric care. The findings highlighted that educational interventions should focus on improving attitudes toward older adults while leveraging social influence to enhance the desirability of geriatric careers. Future research should explore longitudinal changes in health profession students' attitudes and continue to develop and evaluate targeted interventions on students' career intentions.","PeriodicalId":46431,"journal":{"name":"GERONTOLOGY & GERIATRICS EDUCATION","volume":" ","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143494195","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}

Pharmacy faculty members with experience and/or expertise in geriatrics-focused practices or scholarships and/or who taught geriatrics-focused topics in US or Canadian pharmacy programs were eligible for participation. Participants were recruited using a multi-pronged approach between June and November 2022.Findings: A total of 131 completed and non-duplicate surveys were received. Ninety percent of respondents were from US programs and 64.9% worked in public institutions. Sixty-two percent reported greater than 40% teaching efforts, and 39% indicated they were the only person in their program to advocate for geriatrics-focused content. Most reported expectations for scholarship (96.2%), and 77.1% maintained a clinical practice. Among those with research expectations, 53.5% agreed they had an adequate percentage allocation dedicated to research.Conclusion: Geriatrics pharmacy faculty report geriatrics and non-geriatrics teaching expectations, clinical practice workloads, and less time for scholarly productivity.

In the U.S. many states offer programs that promote cost-friendly options to participate in higher education. In Utah, this program is called House Bill 60 (HB60), which allows people 62 and older to audit courses at public universities for a minimal cost. This opportunity has been available for many years, yet it is relatively unknown and not promoted by key parties. The purpose of this paper is to describe the experience of implementing a program to 1) develop and institute a targeted marketing campaign to raise awareness of the HB60 program to university and community partners, 2) develop and administer training to academic advisors to facilitate support for those enrolling in HB60, and 3) enhance enrollment through tuition waiver support. Community partnerships increased and departmental support for marketing, communications, and processing tuition waiver funds facilitated enrollment in HB60. Over four semesters, use of tuition waivers increased by 875%.
