Names like “China Virus” and “Kung Flu” used for COVID-19 by some state officials were rhetorical attacks with corporeal consequences on bodies racialized as Asian. Hate crimes and discrimination rose across America. Brazen and unprovoked assaults in public places left people injured or dead. Many Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) older adults and women were targeted specifically (Stop AAPI Hate, 2022a, 2022b). Nearly all (98.2%) AAPI older adults who experienced hate incidents between March 2020 to December 2021 believed the United States has become a more physically dangerous place, naming race, ethnicity, and gender as the top suspected reasons for their discrimination (Stop AAPI Hate, 2022a). Popular responses to anti-Asian violence have been mobilized around the #StopAAPIHate rallying cry. Major policy approaches have coalesced around bolstering hate crimes reporting. In May 2021, President Biden signed the COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act, sponsored by Hawaii Senator Mazie Hirono (2021), into law. The bill seeks to create state-run hate crime hotlines, enhance law enforcement responses to attacks, and establish a position at the Department of Justice to expedite review of hate crime cases. According to Senator Hirono, “it was really important to the AAPI community to show that the Senate stood with them to condemn these totally unprovoked discriminatory and violent acts” (Shoenthal, 2021).","PeriodicalId":75172,"journal":{"name":"The Public policy and aging report","volume":" ","pages":"94-99"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9384473/pdf/prac014.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40632667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Implementation Science: A Critical Tool for Research Utilization and Policy Evaluation","authors":"Prusaczyk, Bobitt","doi":"10.1093/ppar/prac001","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1093/ppar/prac001","url":null,"abstract":"Implementation science is “the scientific study of methods to promote the systematic uptake of research findings and other evidence-based practices into routine practice, and, hence, to improve the quality and effectiveness of health services” (Eccles & Mittman, 2006, p. 1, para 2). We are pleased to present this themed issue of Public Policy & Aging Report, in which the articles discuss how implementation science can and has informed the implementation of aging-related evidence-based practices (EBPs) in a variety of settings. Additionally, an article contributed by Lisa Onken with the National Institute on Aging (NIA) discusses how it is currently promoting and conceptualizing implementation science, and another highlights how implementation science can be used to evaluate and improve policy dissemination and implementation. A number of this issue’s contributors discuss their experiences implementing aging-related EBPs in different health-care settings, including nursing homes, hospitals, and the Veterans Administration (VA) health system. Abbott, Douglas, and Van Haitsma (2022) elucidate the unique characteristics and challenges of the nursing home setting, including the inequities present in nursing homes due, in part, to the vulnerable and marginalized patient and worker populations in nursing homes, such as racial and ethnic minorities and immigrants. They argue that more attention must be paid to implementing EBPs in nursing homes to address these inequities, and that policies such as those that create mechanisms for reimbursement and increase reimbursement levels for existing mechanisms could help close this gap. Callahan, a clinician herself, highlights the ongoing implementation science efforts in clinical settings such as the NIA’s Imbedded Pragmatic Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias Clinical Trials (IMPACT) Collaboratory and the Geriatric Emergency Care Applied Research (GEAR) Network (Callahan, 2022). She urges more age-friendly policies to ensure these ongoing efforts are successful, such as policies that prioritize function and function-focused outcomes, as well as policies that prioritize reimbursement for quality and value. Sullivan and Hughes (2022) are both implementation scientists working in the VA Health System, and they outline a number of ways the VA has been a leader in the implementation of aging-related EBPs across a number of settings. They note that while there are unique aspects to the VA, there are also many similarities to other large, integrated health systems, and therefore, there are many lessons that can be learned from the VA about implementation strategies and policies that support implementation in health systems. Last, Juckett, Bunck, and Thomas (2022) discuss three service amendments to the Older Americans Act 2020 Reauthorization and their barriers to implementation. They also provide examples of implementation strategies that could optimize the delivery of evidence-based services and programs, if ","PeriodicalId":75172,"journal":{"name":"The Public policy and aging report","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46587767","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}
