DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We are proposing pre- and post-doctoral training in "Individualized Care for At-Risk Older Adults" employing a conceptual framework of transitional care in order to: 1) recruit highly qualified pre- and post-doctoral trainees dedicated to aging research focused on transitions and individualized care for at risk chronically ill elders; 2) prepare trainees in an array of sophisticated methods designed to address significant clinical issues or test innovative approaches for enhancing care of this population across all settings and transitions n care status; 3) provide sustained mentorship to these trainees to assure highly productive scholarly careers; and, 4) expand capacity for cross-center collaboration and interdisciplinary research in aging. Our goals and training program are consistent with the NIH Roadmap and NINR priorities. Specifically, this training program is designed to: 1) prepare trainees with in-depth knowledge of key transition points for at risk older adults and the critical questions appropriate to the next iteration of research on this population; 2) provide intensive research experiences with seasoned mentors well-versed in methods appropriate to critical questions in aging and transitional care; 3) utilize the resources in the School of Nursing and the University to assure cross-center and interdisciplinary exposure and opportunities in transitions and aging research; and, 4) facilitate the conduct of clinically relevant research in aging transitions leading to significant contributions to the science. Faculty at the School of Nursing at the University of Pennsylvania has a strong history and impressive portfolio in interventions that have significantly enhanced quality of life and transitional care for at risk older adults and their caregivers. Particular areas of strength among faculty who dedicate all or part of their research to older adults are nurse-centered interventions aimed at the individual, as well as the system; production and translation of clinically relevant research; and attention to aging persons of all cultural, racial and ethnic backgrounds with needs ranging from the maintenance of physical function to mental health, and who face transitions from chronic illnesses from which they are unlikely to recover. In this five year training program, four pre- and four post- doctoral trainees will be supported annually. Our goal is to contribute in sustainable ways to a critical mass of scholars in transitions and aging who will further the advancement of knowledge in gerontology, broaden a significant base in interdisciplinary aging research, and be positioned to contribute to the science of transitions and individualized care for at risk older adults.

描述（由申请人提供）：我们提议采用过渡性护理概念框架进行“高危老年人的个性化护理”博士前和博士后培训，以便：1）招募高素质的博士前和博士后致力于老龄化研究的学员，重点关注慢性病高危老年人的过渡和个性化护理； 2) 让学员掌握一系列复杂的方法，旨在解决重大临床问题或测试创新方法，以在所有环境和护理状态的转变中加强对这一人群的护理； 3）为这些学员提供持续的指导，以确保高产的学术生涯； 4）扩大老龄化领域的跨中心合作和跨学科研究能力。我们的目标和培训计划与 NIH 路线图和 NINR 优先事项一致。具体来说，该培训计划旨在： 1) 使受训者深入了解高危老年人的关键转变点以及适合该人群下一轮研究的关键问题； 2）与经验丰富的导师一起提供深入的研究经验，这些导师精通适合老龄化和过渡性护理关键问题的方法； 3）利用护理学院和大学的资源，确保跨中心和跨学科的转变和老龄化研究的接触和机会； 4) 促进衰老转变方面临床相关研究的开展，从而为科学做出重大贡献。宾夕法尼亚大学护理学院的教师在干预措施方面拥有悠久的历史和令人印象深刻的组合，这些干预措施显着提高了高危老年人及其护理人员的生活质量和过渡护理。将全部或部分研究致力于老年人的教师的特殊优势领域是以护士为中心的针对个人和系统的干预措施；临床相关研究的制作和翻译；关注各种文化、种族和族裔背景的老年人，他们的需求从维持身体机能到心理健康，以及面临从不太可能康复的慢性病的转变。在这个为期五年的培训计划中，每年将支持四名博士前培训生和四名博士后培训生。我们的目标是以可持续的方式为转型和老龄化领域的关键数量的学者做出贡献，他们将进一步推进老年学知识的进步，拓宽跨学科老龄化研究的重要基础，并为转型和个性化护理科学做出贡献对于高危老年人。
