项目摘要

Family caregiving for older adults is increasingly recognized as an impending public health crisis due to our growing aging population and changing family characteristics. To achieve innovative solutions for the grand challenges family caregivers face, academic entities, who have formerly operated separately, must coalesce to share research approaches and expertise. The purpose of this K07 application, led by Dr. Lee Ellington, is to build the Research Collaborative for Family Caregivers of Older Adults at the University of Utah and Utah Health Sciences to ultimately support the health and wellbeing of family caregivers caring for older adults. The Collaborative is designed to transcend traditional academic boundaries using a bridging infrastructure to harness, connect and amplify existing strengths of five campus entities joining for the first time. These entities include the Center for Alzheimer’s Care, Center on Aging, Center for Health Outcomes and Population Equity in Cancer, Consortium for Families and Health Research, and the College of Nursing (5Cs). Each is committed to starting new endeavors and expanding existing partnerships for caregiving science of older adults through Collaborative activities. Each brings a unique cadre of researchers, trainees and junior faculty, and has a distinct domain or focus that allows for rich cross-fertilization. In addition to collaborating with the 5Cs, Dr. Ellington will partner with a strong, existing University mentorship program to select and provide value-added mentorship and training to 10 Caregiver Scholars fostering their potential to become leaders of interdisciplinary research teams improving support for family caregivers of older adults. Finally, she will create new caregiving-related curricula, which will be delivered through CCTS and the Interprofessional Education Program. These curricula streams will have a wide reach at the University and Health Sciences, educating and training both emerging researchers and the next generation of health care professional about caregiving for older adults. Drawing from her current leadership experiences and enhanced by additional professional development activities, Dr. Ellington is poised to achieve the following aims: 1) Leverage existing entities across the University of Utah and Utah Health Sciences to establish an environment for interdisciplinary faculty to share, collaborate, and advance research for family caregiving across mental and physical health conditions and disabilities for older adults; 2) Partner with an established mentorship program at the University of Utah and Utah Health Sciences to expand capacity and training to promising junior caregiving scientists who actively participate in Collaborative programmatic activities; and 3) Develop and evaluate new curricula on family caregiving for older adults to reach new investigators including emerging clinician scientists and future health care providers. The Collaborative will increase the pool of investigators and promote the capacity and quality of research; thus, elevating the University’s commitment to caregiving and aging science for the health and wellbeing of caregivers of older adults for our state, our region and our nation.

老年人的家庭照料越来越被认为是迫在眉睫的公共健康危机，因为我们的不断增长的老龄化人口和变化的家庭特征。实现宏伟的创新解决方案家庭照顾者面临的挑战，以前分开运作的学术实体必须联合起来分享研究方法和专业知识。这个由Lee Ellington博士领导的K07应用程序的目的是在犹他州和犹他州大学为老年人的家庭照顾者建立研究协作健康科学最终支持照顾老年人的家庭照顾者的健康和福祉。这个协作性设计旨在超越传统的学术界限，使用桥接基础设施来利用、连接和放大首次加入的五个校园实体的现有优势。这些实体包括阿尔茨海默氏症护理中心、老龄中心、健康结果和人口中心癌症公平，家庭和健康研究联盟，以及护理学院(5Cs)。每一个都是致力于开始新的努力并扩大现有的老年护理科学合作伙伴关系通过协作活动为成人提供帮助。每一位都带来了一批独特的研究人员、实习生和初级教职员工，并且有一个独特的领域或焦点，允许丰富的交叉受精。除了与 5Cs，艾灵顿博士将与现有的强大的大学导师计划合作，选择和提供为10名护理者学者提供增值辅导和培训，培养他们成为跨学科研究团队改善对老年人家庭照顾者的支持。最后，她将创造与照顾有关的新课程，将通过CCTS和跨专业教育提供程序。这些课程流将在大学和健康科学领域产生广泛影响，教育和对新兴研究人员和下一代医疗保健专业人员进行有关护理的培训上了年纪的人。借鉴了她目前的领导经验，并通过额外的专业人员进行了改进对于发展活动，艾灵顿博士准备实现以下目标：1)利用现有实体在犹他州大学和犹他州健康科学大学建立跨学科教师环境分享、合作和推进有关家庭照顾心理和身体健康状况的研究和老年人的残疾；2)与犹他大学既定的导师计划合作和犹他州健康科学公司将能力和培训扩大到有前途的初级护理科学家，他们积极参与合作方案活动；以及3)开发和评估有关家庭的新课程照顾老年人以接触到新的研究人员，包括新兴临床医生科学家和未来的健康照顾者。协作组将增加调查员队伍，并促进研究；因此，提升了大学对保健和老龄科学的承诺为我们的州、我们的地区和我们的国家的老年人照顾者的福祉。
