“This award from Robert Wood Johnson Foundation provides a remarkable opportunity to improve interprofessional community-based care for older adults with dementia, allowing these older adults to age in their homes rather than move to expensive nursing homes or assisted living facilities.” Brody said. “I am honored and humbled to be selected as an RWJF Nurse Faculty Scholar and excited to use this opportunity to further interprofessional, team-based, patient- and family-centered care for older adults living in the community.”
