Improving Care for Nursing Home residents with Diabetes and Cognitive Impairment
Description: PROJECT NARRATIVE The optimal diabetes care for nursing home residents with both diabetes and cognitive impairment is unclear. The proposed studies will examine current diabetes care practices in NH residents across the spectrum of cognitive impairment and determine which practices are associated with better (and worse) outcomes. This study will build the evidence base for diabetes care for nursing home residents with diabetes and cognitive impairment, which will ultimately lead to improved guidelines, improved care and improved outcomes for these vulnerable older adults.
